Laser Nationals

Good luck to the four sailors from PLSC heading to Wellington for the 2012 NZ Laser National Championships.

New Zealand has always had some of the world's top Laser sailors at the Nationals, and I know that some of the PLSC guys are getting pretty close too.

Do the small clubs proud guys!

I'm hoping for some updates here as the series goes on.

Upcoming sailing events 21-8-2011.

This weekends Manukau sailing events are:

Laser racing at PLSC, Ireland Road Panmure - Handicap series number 2.
11:30 Start.

Mixed fleet racing at PSC, Farm Cove Pakuranga - Winter series 11 and 12.
10:00 Start, followed by prizegiving.

Both events are on Sunday, and dont forget to arrive with plenty of time to rig, and mention the Manukau Sailing Blog when you are talking to people there!

The windfinder forecast says around 5-15 knots SW, fine, clear skies, and 12 degrees, so probably not the best weather for those shorty wetsuits!

PLSC Lasers on Sunday

Laser racing at PLSC, Ireland Road Panmure this Sunday, July 10.

1:30 start, arrive around 12:30 to allow time to rig.

Hire boats available.

I'll try to be there!!

Manukau sailors at PLSC

Laser sailors from Waiuku and Weymouth clubs fared well when visiting Panmure Lagoon Sailing Club this afternoon. Although neither of them scored a win, both showed good speed, finishing in  the top bunch and challenging for the lead in all races.

Great fun racing, with a good bunch of sailors. PLSC is only around 15 minutes drive from Weymouth, on Ireland road.
