Yachting WA Winter Lecture Series features Peter Gilmour
by Royal Perth Yacht Club on 27 Jul 2009
Royal Perth Yacht Club .
The Yachting WA Winter Lecture Series are designed for to get all WA sailors thinking about their upcoming season and especially those who race weekly (or nearly) at their club. Some sessions will be more suited to dinghy sailors while other sessions will be more suited to larger boat sailors however the concepts and principles are easily transferable.
Presenters will be encouraging questions and discussion in the bar post each session, however sailors who are unable to attend a session are strongly encouraged to have someone take notes for them as there won't be any available after the session.
Tickets are $5 per person per session (inc GST) or $30 per person for all 9 sessions (inc GST) and are available at the door or from Yachting WA prior. Unfortunately we are unable to charge your club account.
All sessions will be on Tuesday evenings from 7-8pm. Please arrive a few minutes before to ensure you don't miss those all important first key words.
