Queensland State Title 2013 – Planning date

The 2013 Queensland RC Laser title is planned to be held at Lake Kawana on the Sunshine Coast over the weekend of 22nd/23rd June.  This event never disappoints and promises to have a strong fleet from the broader Southeast Queensland area and we hope a good number of sailors from further afield.

Held on Saturday the 10th November 2012, hosted by PRRYC at the lake at Lakeside Raceway.  The competitors behaved themselves and had a great day even though it was showery all day. The weather    started out to be a light north westerly, one race it blow quite heavy, so it was time to change down to a B rig, however it didn’t last long, back to the A rig, Randy carried the A all the time and won that race. As the day progressed the winds changed to the south west to a nice 5 knots which gave the skippers a good windward work that made for some good racing. The first 3 places were hard fought between Nigel who seemed have control however Graham had his measure at times but Randy close behind bitting on their heels. Everyone had a 1st position during the day, except David Page who is beginner ended up with a 2nd and 3rd  and Peter Burford had what seemed like radio problems and forced to retire Thanks goes to the PRRYC members who officiated at the event

There were 8 entries in order of race results:

1. Nigel Price            27

2. Graham Fletcher        32
