Do you only accept noelex 25’s into the club? 😊 I am thinking of getting a trailer sailer and wondering what other boats people are sailing. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Stephen The club is called Newcastle Hunter Trailer Yacht Association. On facebook they also have a general non member page called Lake Macquarie Trailer Sailers. Yes there are all types of boats not only racing but also cruising. There are boomerangs, Castle 650s, Sunmaid 20s, Clubman 8s, Noelex 25s and the list goes on. Anything that is trailerable is welcome. We have only got our trailer sailers last year and have to say this club has been invaluable for us with information and they are loads of fun. Their web page is here www.trailersailer.org/ on there you will find a program which will start again after winter. Even if you don't have a boat we encourage people to come and meet us and you can jump on one of the boats.
Really enjoying seeing a fellow Sunmaid 20 in action. I’ve just purchased a Sunmaid Sail no. 121 last week and hoping to get it out for her first sail next week once a few small jobs complete. Hoping to join an upcoming RAID when you next visit the South Coast.
Hi Phil, I did see a picture of your Sunmaid. It is a pretty boat. You will enjoy sailing her, they are a really great boat in the water. Maybe we will see out on the water one day.
Hi, Thanks she is very slick. I'm 5ft 5 and have to bend to go inside. Pete and I did sleep on it and were pretty comfortable. You should try and have a look at one in person to see if it suits you. We do think she is a great boat to sail though. Good luck with your search
Lovely video, thanks for posting; she looks newly built as does the trailer. Ours is 218, owned by our family from 1977. Look after Ivy and enjoy her, they're great boats.
Wow! I love that you guys have had the Sunmaid in the same family since 1977. We absolutely love her and look forward to many adventures with her. Will look out for you on the water. Good results at Marlay too by the way.
