The NSW Hobie Class Association will again run two State Titles over the 2019-20 season. In running a split series, the Association wishes to encourage our youth and women members to develop their skills and sail in a competitive environment and we also recognise that our members like to sail different classes of Hobies. At the suggestion of members the association has decided for the 2019-2020 season to expand the event to allow women and youths to not only compete on Hobie 16’s but on any Hobie Class Catamaran. We hope to both encourage women and youths to compete on different Hobie classes and to attract those that are to this event.
The Womens and Youths Hobie Class titles will be determined using the official Australian Sailing Yardstick (formerly VYC) Depending on entry and class numbers, a plurality of starts may be used, most likely starting at 3 minute intervals.
Details of the series are as follows:
Series 1
