Sabres at BYS in 2016 Carl Webster
The 2016 Victorian State Championships are being hosted by the Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron this coming the weekend – February 27 and 28. It’s been about 10 years since the last Sabre State Championships at Blairgowrie and we are looking forward to host over 80 competitors for this year’s regatta. The racing will be held from 1100 hours on Saturday 27th February.

Competitors and families are welcomed down to enjoy the club’s brand new clubhouse with much larger deck, offering wide views of racing on the normally flat seas and the picturesque coastline that arcs from Sorrento to Arthurs Seat and beyond. The club bistro and bar will be open for everyone who’d like to unwind after the Saturday racing and to experience the new clubhouse.
