Mike Kenyon was on the water this weekend for all the action in the Sail Mooloolaba Dinghy Division racing. The sun was hiding, but the breeze was still there to keep the racing exciting.

On the offshore course Lasers, 4.7s, Radial Lasers, Optimists and a mixed fleet of two-handed boats were on the inner course while the speedy Arrows raced for the Queensland Championship trophy.

All divisions completed the scheduled four races in 12 to 15 knot southerlies.
