General Business

Royal Hobart Regatta. Greg to be asked to send some photos to RHR Assn for next years program. It would be good to have someone on shore to do some commentary during the racing next year.

Next National Championships are in Canberra.

Andrew Roberts noted that the Mirrors with their mixed ages, offered much more balance in racing than a purely Junior (or Senior) group of sailors. This was especially with attitude and tactics. This was particularly noticable during the Optimist Championships.

Membership for Scotch College boats to be discussed with John Behrens.

Last start for States suggested 2pm.

Jenny suggested Clubs try to use Mirrors where possible with eg Adult Ed, Parent sailing etc.
