2019 NZL Nats Report
Held at Rotorua Yacht Club, Rotorua, 6th - 10th February. David Haylock reports.
12 scheduled races, 12 sailed
Rotorua is a lake in the central north island. It’s surrounded by geothermal activity which gives the whole town an interesting smell. When we visit Rotorua, we are hosted by the Davey family on their front lawn right next to the yacht club and this time was no different. This makes a great location for boat work, launching and for relaxing in their geothermal hot tub.

2018 Review of the year.
As one continent’s season closes another one opens as ever, in our Worldwide ‘A’ Class family. The AUS, NZL and ARG sailors are getting full into their seasons, whereas the USA and CAN migrate South for the winter, the European sailors all return to their caves, fortified with berries and nuts, wondering if their boats are thinking about them as much too, and awaiting the arrival of Spring when they can emerge, blinking into the sunlight again.
