Hmmmph...I didn't even know this was on.
Why would you have a regatta in Perth in May - the least windy month of the year?
and probably weighs nothing.
the event is in december isn't it? should be windy. be interesting to see who is at the pointy end. i'm thinking there will be an aussie up there. 
really don't know why they chose this month instead of a windier month Gestalt should be interesting to see how he fares
no the isaf sailing world titles are on then it is one of the biggest sailing events
RSX Nationals were held in Fremantle in Feb this year. Afternoon races were windy (20 knots) and the medal race was gusting to 27 knots. 9.5s and 8.5s both handled it. Six aussie men and 2 women are doing the RSX worlds in Denmark in August in order to qualify for the IASF worlds in Fremantle next year. Hopefully we'll get a good contingent of Aus sailors racing in the event.
