Day 3 of racing for the 43rd SeaLink Australian Tasar National Championship today from the Townsville Sailing Club. After five races, Rob and Nicole Douglass from NSW on 2848 Coollit lead from Craig McPhee and Gill Berry of South Australia, 2857 Roll Your Own, with Rick Longbottom and Daryl Bentley, 2898 Navy Sailing in third. The points are tight, and with five races to sail this event is sure to come down to the wire.

Check out this video from Adventures of a Sailor Girl (Nic Douglass), a time-lapse of 61 Tasars launching from above for day 1 of the Tasar Nationals at the Townsville Sailing Club. 45 minutes of footage squeezed into less than three minutes. Check out the incoming tide! Amazing!
