RS500 Rooster National Tour 2024
7 Sailing Events,
45 races,
17 helms,
20 crews,
37 total sailors,
12 Sailing Clubs represented,
11 different helms, 12 different crews on the Podiums,
Lots of prizes for 1st, 2nd 3rd, Endeavour prizes and mid-fleet heroes, …and one sensational Limbo competition.
The Rooster National Tour has welcomed friends old and new, and mixed them together for on the water excitement, rivalry and banter. We’ve had brilliant class racing throughout the fleet, with position changes from front to back and back to front, in both tactical light winds and white-knuckle rides atop washing machine seas. There have been some great class suppers, pre-sailing cups of teas and quite a few post-racing drinks to ease the muscles, recount the racing highlights, discuss tuning and techniques, and to convince ourselves that ‘tomorrow we’ll be champions!’
