The Melbourne event was hosted at Safety Beach on the Mornington Peninsula and Windcraft owners enjoyed boating in some of the most picturesque parts of Port Phillip. The weather was perfect.
In the words of Team Windcraft's Nick Jones “I can honestly say that the Melbourne Sail Away was a wonderful, wonderful event. It was fantastic to see so many boats in the fleet.”
On the same weekend in New Zealand, twenty four Hanse, Moody and Dehler yachts sailed past the bottom end of Motuihe Island, along the Tamaki straight and finished south of Rocky Bay Waiheke. The day ended with spit roast pork and beef and cold beers while sitting on the grass and enjoying the views of the boats moored in Kuakarau Bay.
The NSW Pittwater owners' rally is on the 28th March.
