This post is to say “THANKS HEAPS” to the Sabre folk from East Fremantle Yacht Club and Perth Dinghy Sailing Club. I was shown enormous hospitality at both clubs when I visited there recently. At both clubs a boat was made available for me to sail and everyone was so welcoming and friendly. The first WA Sabre States were held and I was fortunate to be able to take part in that.
The enthusiasm in WA is outstanding and the fleet is growing at a phenomenal rate. The association here will be well placed to hold an excellent National regatta in 2013/14. Matilda Bay in Perth is an ideal venue and in summer the ‘Fremantle Doctor’ can generally be relied upon to give the necessary impetus to racing.
