Hello Victorian peoples!
Has there been any discussion on final location and dates for the next Nats? Some of us need to book leave in advance as well as book accommodation.

So how's everyone getting on with accommodation where is everyone staying?

Afternoon Gents,

The Speers Point Amatuer Yacht Club is having another executive meeting this Thursday and I have been asked to attend.

Could you please ask any and all questions to me on this thread or send me a message/call to 0427947330 and I will bring them up and get answers.

This is the last chance for a while to get things clarified so please send them on and I will try to get some clarification.

Regards,
Luke

hi there
I have emailed the speers point club about accommodation but they haven't replied
I am keen to have accommodation or stay with the majority
at the moment we will have at least have two mosquitos from queensland

Morning Brett,

I know there is a caravan park about 10 minutes drive away around the lake. There is also limited accommodation in the yacht club itself. There is a lot of accommodation around the area as it is a tourist destination, so if you search Warners Bay and the NNW corner of the lake it should present lots of options.

I will try to get some names of good options on Thursday.

Regards,
Luke

Thanks Luke

Hi all,

Peter N has booked a cabin at the caravan park , so I'll be staying there and taking a bike .

Gary,Peter

What is the name of the park your are booked into?

Evening Gents,

I just went to the Speers Point Amateur YC meeting to represent the Mozzies for the Nationals.

It looks like they will want to charge $2500 minimum at $100 per boat, and any number of boats above 25 at $100 per boat. (i.e. 30 boats is $3000 etc).

The club is down to 50 members, so they are very happy we can provide a PRO. They will also provide a welcome BBQ on the Sunday night, 10 x unpowered tent only camp sites at the YC (great for boat security), a fridge on the ground floor, canteen for lunches, make a BBQ available for self breakfasts and obviously toilets and showers.

They will run on water starts for whatever courses we require, there is a chandlery 3km around the lake at Warners Bay for parts and sail repairs.

I asked about accommodation but there are many options in the area, so they suggested to Google and agree on a common one. The closest pub is Pippies which is literally across the road from the YC. Addition options are also available on the Lake Macquarie Tourism website.

They suggested going to the RSL for the presentation night which is also local.

SPASC asked that the NOR be sent to them prior to being distributed, so they can include a map of the lake, and update details such as descriptions of buoys etc. I have email addresses to send it to when that is ready.

That pretty much covered it.

Regards,
Luke
