Submitting News, Results and Pix - YOU can do it!!

by Rob Kothe & the Sail-World Team on 7 Jan 2009
The Sail-World Team has been at the A-Cat Worlds on Lake Macquarie this week; today is a lay day, so we are rubbing the salt out of our eyes.

The number of Worlds title and Nationals that are direct uploading to Sail-World continues to grow.

It very very simple, we have hundreds of reports uploaded each month. Submitting News, Results and Pix - Club, Class and Publicity officers can all do it. YOU can do it!!

Very Important - Event organisers and Publicity Officers need to recognise that in a changing world event reports must change too.

No pictures? No news! is the policy of many media groups these days, Yachting Australia is amongst those.

So please send pictures…pictures… pictures.

Best news of the day is the rescue of Vendee Globe sailor Jean Le Cam from the upturned hull of his boat VM Matériaux, by fellow racer Vincent Riou, who pulled him aboard PRB this morning.

Let's go inshore, and how, with the 16-foot skiffs. Great action, and superb sailing. We'd been in supermaxi, mini maxi, double hander and serious weather mode for what seemed like some time. Then, as is the case at this time of year, there are a plethora of Australian Championships that get run, especially for OTB classes.

A thriving clubhouse leads to higher racing attendance, and visa versa I'm a great believer in starting things on the right foot. Be that in the morning, going for a run (even though it was damn chilly this morning) to set yourself up for the day, or preparing ahead for a meeting so that you've got the figures to hand.
