24.01.2022 The 2019-20 Championship & Handicap results have been published on the Club website at: https://portriversailing.club/handicap-championship-series/ The Championship series for Sabres, sailed over 14 races with 3 discards, was won by Chris Pritchard sailing Gert Lush, by one point from Adrian Knoop in Goldfinger. The Handicap series for Sabres, sailed over 20 races with 4 discards, was won by Rob Lees sailing Seniors Discount. ... Well done to Chris and Rob! There was close racing throughout the season, as indicated by the close series scores. The trophy presentation is planned for season 2020/21 Opening Day.

16.01.2022 Thanks to the efforts of Alex and Gary, the flagpole has been mounted in front of the rescue boat shed. It is in a much more prominent position than before in front of the Club house. The plan is for a commemoration on Opening Day.

16.01.2022 The SA Sabre Association has programmed State Heats 1 & 2 to be held at PRSC on 29th November 2020 commencing at 13:00 hours. Please update your program and volunteers will be required on this date.

15.01.2022 2019/2020 Sailing season PRSC trophy winners. Congratulations to all the winners and good luck this season.

15.01.2022 Club working bees We have had two successful working bees in the past month. Lots have been done around the Club house, boat sheds, and on the rescue boats' motors in readiness for the forthcoming season. The foundation and mounting is in place for the flag pole to be craned into place. The plan is to have a small ceremony to coincide with the long awaited erection of the pole. Stay tuned for when the erection is to occur. Well done to all the enthusiastic members who contributed to the working bees.

10.01.2022 There is supposed to be sailing tomorrow, as scheduled, however the forecast doesn't look good, with 50 km/hr winds in the afternoon. The monthly Club meet is being held at 1200 hrs.

09.01.2022 A reminder that next Tuesday is the Melbourne Cup Day and PRSC is hosting a Melbourne Cup Luncheon and the inaugural 'Duck Race'. Contact Alex or Sue Hayter (0409 804 836) to book your spot.

08.01.2022 Not the Nationals We are planning another "Not the Nationals" regatta this coming season. The regatta will be held over three days from Sunday 27th to Tuesday 29th in December. Given that it is likely not many people will be able to travel interstate for sailing due to border restrictions, this regatta offers anyone in any class of boat the opportunity to have some fun racing over Xmas. More details to follow.

08.01.2022 Sabre Training Its time to clear the cobwebs off your boat, because the SA Sabre Association is holding a training day on Sunday the 27th at the Port River Sailing Club. The day commences with measuring at 10:30 am, complete rigging boats by 11:30 am, start the BBQ at 12 noon and on the water at 1:00 pm. Craig McPhee will be a training instructor. We are considering some pairing during the afternoon, where one member sails and the other watches from a power boat. In this way coaches’ comments are shared. All members including Thumb Sailors are invited to attend and we require volunteers to operate the safety boats and BBQ. Please RSVP to Alex Hayter on mobile 0418 892 145 if you can assist.

08.01.2022 Another great day of team sailing at Port River.

07.01.2022 Due to Government Covid restrictions all Club sailing has been abandoned until further notice.

06.01.2022 This coming Sunday, 1st November, PRSC is hosting the Secondary Schools Team Racing Trials and your assistance would be appreciated. Please contact Alex on 0418 892 145 if you are available to help.

04.01.2022 A reminder that Opening Day for Season 2020/21 is tomorrow. It would be great to see a good turn out on and off the water. I expect a lot of people will be looking forward to the end of 2020 (which was brought to you by the letters, W, T & F).
