BALLAST HEAD CUP REMINDER

NNew Year’s Day 2021 will be the 19th anniversary of this iconic race sailed off beautiful Island Beach adjacent to American River on the sheltered northern coast of

Kangaroo Island.

Over the years this event has played host to many yachts from Adelaide and beyond who have taken the opportunity to cruise these water over the Christmas/

New Year break. Several yachts from American River and

Kingscote join in the fun and a great time is enjoyed by all.

The course is set on the generally sheltered waters of

Eastern Cove although a true northerly might stir the waves up to about half a metre. It is sailed as two laps of a triangular course around easily identifiable marks. The fleet is split into higher and lower handicaps with the smaller yachts starting half an hour ahead of the bigger yachts and then everyone converges onto the beach for a barbecue, drinks and the trophy presentation.

Trophies are presented to keel boats for Fastest, Handicap 1st, 2nd and 3rd and to the first new entry on handicap. A multihull 1st on handicap trophy winner will be presented if three or more compete. In early December a Notice of

Race, Sailing Instructions and a course map will be emailed directly to previous entrants and the CYCSA office will supply these to other interested parties.

Please help make this annual event a memorable one and ensure that the iconic race stays on the calendar.
