25.01.2022 Saturdays Training Cancelled Tomorrow there is a strong wind warning in place which means we are NOT able to proceed with tomorrows training. We will re-evaluate on Saturday afternoon to see if the weather will allow for Sundays session to proceed.... I will update Facebook late tomorrow afternoon regarding Sundays session. We are very disappointed that we cant proceed tomorrow however the sailors safety must take precedent.

22.01.2022 The rain has stopped and the sailors have hit the water on the first day of the Humpybong WinterBash. Newest Sabot Sailor Lana has taken her new boat on the water for the first time. With such a big smile I think she is pretty excited. Good luck sailors ... (Sailing photos are through binoculars)

22.01.2022 Day 1 of Training has started for our sailors as they get ready for the Sabot Qld Titles starting on Thursday. Have a great day sailors, looks like an absolute stunner out there. #seriousfun #sabotsailing #sabotfamily

22.01.2022 This is a great regatta and lots of fun. This regatta is the Qld Sabot State Titles too.

21.01.2022 Sunday Training Cancelled With 20knot plus winds expected tomorrow we have made the decision to cancels tomorrows (Sundays) training. We were excited to see 15 sabots hit the water tomorrow but feel its in our sailors best interests to postpone.... Next weekend we have our Bay Titles at DPSS and on water coaching will be available for boats not contending the top positions. We are also introducing a one day entry for those who arent available to sail both days. Below is the link for the entry for next weekends Bay Titles at DPSS. https://www.trybooking.com/BKLMN

21.01.2022 Some big, exciting news coming from the ANSC and zones regarding the 57th Sabot Nationals in Townsville! Past Nationals held in Townsville have been widely reg...arded as one of the best for the sailors and families alike, with great sailing conditions and a holiday atmosphere. However COVID 19 has created ongoing uncertainty in terms of families being able to plan and commit to accommodation and transport, as well as challenges for the organising zone, with the impact on the North Queensland economy. As a result ANSC advises that the 57th Sabot National Championships and Sabot Week to be hosted by North Queensland Sabots at Townsville Sailing Club has been rescheduled, to ensure maximum attendance and success, and will now be held 1 8 July 2021. The month of July is one of the best times of year in North Queensland, so the Nationals will be an event better event, and a great opportunity for those from the Southern States to escape winter! ANSC look forward to seeing all Sabots in Townsville in July 2021 for what will be a wonderful event of close racing and fun times. #sabotsailing #sabotfamily North Queensland Sabot Association South Queensland Sabot Association Sydney Sabots Lane Cove 12ft Sailing Skiff Club Drummoyne Sailing Club Juniors Northern NSW Sabot Sailing Assoc Australian Sailing - Queensland Australian Sailing
