With the season about to kick off, the Victorian Tasars got together for the 2013/14 presentations. Between a highly competitive trivia quiz presented by Ronstan CEO Alistair Murray and a marshmallow/spaghetti building competition, most of the talk amongst the sailors was training plans for the up coming worlds in Busselton, Western Australia (tasar2015.com).
The winners of the trophies were:
Overall Season Winner (Peter Ellis/Charlotte Birbeck – Sandringham Yacht Club) – Beat the most number of boats in sanctioned events over the whole season.
Participation Winner (Chas & Lorraine Thompson – Cairn Curran Sailing Club) first competitor who competed in all sanctioned events around the state (plus a few more) – big thanks to Martyn Sly for providing a brand new jib as the prize.
2013/14 – Victorian State Titles – Super Grand Masters (Tony & Julie Creak – Royal Geelong Yacht Club) the inaugural presentation of the SGM.
2013 -Victorian Winter Series (Martyn & Sue Sly- Mordialloc Sailing Club).
