With the season about to kick off, the Victorian Tasars got together for the 2013/14 presentations. Between a highly competitive trivia quiz presented by Ronstan CEO Alistair Murray and a marshmallow/spaghetti building competition, most of the talk amongst the sailors was training plans for the up coming worlds in Busselton, Western Australia (tasar2015.com).

The winners of the trophies were:

  • Overall Season Winner (Peter Ellis/Charlotte Birbeck - Sandringham Yacht Club) - Beat the most number of boats in sanctioned events over the whole season.

  • Participation Winner (Chas & Lorraine Thompson - Cairn Curran Sailing Club) first competitor who competed in all sanctioned events around the state (plus a few more) - big thanks to Martyn Sly for providing a brand new jib as the prize.

  • 2013/14 - Victorian State Titles - Super Grand Masters (Tony & Julie Creak - Royal Geelong Yacht Club) the inaugural presentation of the SGM.

  • 2013 -Victorian Winter Series (Martyn & Sue Sly- Mordialloc Sailing Club).

The TAV would like to thank all members that came along and made it a fabulous night, and a special thank you to the TAV sponsors; Felco Australia, Ronstan Australia and Sly Boat Building & Repair Centre.
