Sydney West Harbour Winter Series Chris Durman
Balmain Sailing Club, Drummoyne Sailing Club and Greenwich Flying Squadron have joined fleets to put on a seven race winter series starting on Sunday 19th May with races to be conducted fortnightly. Eighty yachts have signed up over four divisions with racing to be conducted between Goat Island and the Gladesville Bridge.

This series will enable west harbour yachts to experience large fleet racing without the 45 minute run around to the main harbour. This will also be an opportunity to for crews to improve their skills and pit themselves against quality opposition.
