Finding it hard to find info on racing one designs in SA . i.e race events, clubs, race boards (One Design) for sale etc. Windsurfing SA suggests Brighton yacht club but they dont have windurfers listed as one of their classes on their website? I used to race catamarans in my teens in the 80s, I surf weekends and sail every other month but looking for a club / race community? Any info greatly appreciated.

Brighton Yacht Club was the venue for the wednesday night races organised here in this forum by DrDuck (Theres one on tonight which may be the last?)

I believe they had a category for One Design and older style windsurf boards.

Other than that, nothing that I know of.

Hi yeoldsurfer,

Yep, like jamdfinger said there has been casual course-racing at Brighton & Seacliff Yacht Club on 1st & 3rd Wed of the month. Last night was the last - see the thread in this group for a bit more info. It's planned to run again next season, with either Wallys (One design) or Raceboard's being popular but basically there are no rules about equipment. Please join us! Keep an eye on this site for plans about next season. P.S. NOT organised by me but I'm a regular participant.

Also, I might post here during autumn/winter to see if some of the longboarders want to do a coast run or similar in those lighter sunny winter days.

P.P.S. There maybe RSX racing at Adelaide Sailing Club, but I'm not sure about that.

Regards, Richard

I Was keen to get out more on the Bamba but starting this new job made me a bit late on the wednesdays.... if you do get something going on the sunny winter days Richard im keen, as long as theres no SUP-ers to knock off the board over with my mast
