With the season about to kick off, the Victorian Tasars got together for the 2013/14 presentations. Between a highly competitive trivia quiz presented by Ronstan CEO Alistair Murray and a marshmallow/spaghetti building competition, most of the talk amongst the sailors was training plans for the up coming worlds in Busselton, Western Australia (tasar2015.com).

The winners of the trophies were:

Overall Season Winner (Peter Ellis/Charlotte Birbeck - Sandringham Yacht Club) - Beat the most number of boats in sanctioned events over the whole season.
