Venues

   There is a reason why last year TTT was the largest university team racing event outside of the nationals... Its in Newcastle!  Great sailing, great city, great time!!  
Also getting to the club is easyon weekends, 25 min on the metro (the club is 10 min walk from the last stop on the line so you can sleep on the train) then stumble downhill to the club whatever state you are in from the night before, sorted!!  
This year we are running the BUSA finals at Derwent.  For the second year in a row now we are running a yacht racing weekend out of largs with teams joing us from ANUSC and SUSA.  Not to mention sailing every weekend of the year, saturday and sunday.  
In case you need another reason, the rent is cheaper up here, which leaves more money for beer/sailing/food.  
See you up here soon
