For a good taster of the new venue at Black Rock YC at exactly the same time of year as our Worlds check out the recent Australian OK Nationals. Daily reports are on Y&Y. They had a mix of weather, winds and sea state and the wind for racing seemed varying between 10-20kn over the week.

Also check out the reports of the recent RS Aero champs at Black Rock for an example of the variety of conditions we may expect on Port Phillip Bay; The RS Aero Australian Nationals, April 2017; https://www.rsaerosailing.org/index.asp?p=results&rid=3333
and the RS Aero Victorian State Champs, April 2018; https://www.rsaerosailing.org/index.asp?p=results&rid=3444
Another huge event at Black Rock this week to check out as an appetiser for the RS Aero Worlds - it is the 40 boat Australian Finn Champs and they have 13 top International visitors using these same waters for training ready for their pre-Olympic season benefiting from the climate and variety of conditions. Their Gold Cup is next door at the Royal Brighton in December, could be a good warm up for the RS Aero Worlds!

2019 RS AERO WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, AUSTRALIA
*Venue and Date change*
A decision has been taken, along both commercial and practical lines, to move the location of the 2019 RS Aero Worlds in Australia from Port Stephens to Black Rock, Melbourne. This necessitates a date change to 28th Dec 2019 - 4th Jan 2020.
Racing is planned from 30th Dec - 4th Jan. The 28/29th Dec will be for registration, measurements and pre Worlds sailing. A lay-day is planned for New Years Day, provided racing is adequately on schedule.
Additional information will be added to the Event Page in the next few of days;
