This should help those trying to confirm accommodation bookings. We have also been advised the Stinger Suits will be mandatory, SQSA will be looking into this and will be having available as part of the Uniform a long pant – similar to those used at the Bowen Nationals. (More information on this will follow, when available).
So far the the list of sailors who have let me know they will probably be coming up to Airlie Beach are:
Oliver Kalpokas
James Oliver
(Kate Hannah)
James McLennan
Pip and Eliza Solly
Jacob Freeman
If anyone else is considering coming up for either the Nationals or Sabot Week, please email me at: mkalpokas@mac.com
