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.
