The Zhik Etchells NSW State Championship teams have rolled into town and put themselves through the rigour of weigh-in, boat set-up and for some, a quick dash out to test the offshore conditions. The rain didn't let up all day. At least the forecast for the next three race days is for mostly sunshine and good breezes. Around the hardstand and at registration a few fun images have been captured.
