4 Endeavour 26s sail regularly in club events at the Austins Ferry Yacht Club. Competing against various others of similar size, including a couple of older design trailer sailers, good close racing is experienced.
Great to see abit of info from Tassie. What are the names of the boats? How long have the owners had them? etc. All Tasweegins! How many Endeavours do you reckon are down there? Col
More importantly :-) How many e24s are there and is anyone interested in sending a crew up for the National Titles???? We can organise a boat but the crew will have to bring along their sails and certain safety gear. I don't advise sailing up as there are too many crazy sailors on the way down and the traffic is atrocious at this time of the year (Sydney-Hobart). If anyone is interested please contact me urgently.
Drummoyne Sailing Club in Sydney have a number of Endeavours which compete regularly in the Club events. In Winter there is a (fortnightly) Sunday Pointscore Race and in Summer there is the Tuesday Twilight Series (20 Races) and also the (fortnightly)Sunday Summer Pointscore Series (10 Races). Nimbus and Onyx take part in these races and hopefully Shenanigan (all E24s) as well as Witchways and Juganew (E26s). I used to race on Shenanigan years ago from Middle Harbour Yacht Club but nowadays I don't know if there are many still there! BBYC also have a number of Endeavours which compete regularly (sorry I don't know which ones yet).
If anyone is near DSC then please come and take part. The races are a lot of fun and it is great training for the Association events. ;-)
