A-Class: NSW State Championship for Steve Brewin
Image: Julie Hartwig – www.juliehartwigphotography.ifp3.com from 2015 Aus Nats – Another win for Steve sailing an Exploder with ‘Z’ boards , as pictured above. Scott Anderson went back to standard C ones, as many are doing in Europe within the info I have. Foilers have an edge as shown in Bordeaux and all latest events (if you are good enough to control downwind flihgt & drag upwind), but equal good sailors in floating mode are still giving the flyers a run for their money in each race, making for some interesting design choices.
From 5 races, Brewin won 3, Anderson & Sinclair with Cs won the other 2. Making yet another reason for the Class to stay together.

I just heard that my great sailing friend and former CEO of Hobiecat Europe has passed. May The endless oceans…
...Report was sent by an F18 Sailor, if you want Hobies reported send your own, we'll publish as usual. Cheers.
Looks like in your report the Hobies are not really present. Suggest to rewrite the article.
Thanks for the great report Wik. Great battle.
If I correctly read the results the overall winner this year is a Hobie16
