Parramatta River Sailing Club provides keelboat racing in two divisions. In Spring, Summer and Autumn we run spinnaker races each Saturday and in Winter we race each second Saturday. We also run a non-spinnaker twilight series during daylight saving period of the year each Wednesday evening. Spring, Summer and Autumn races are a mix of regular river races and harbour races. Courses for regular races take the fleet from our starting line at Looking Glass Point and extend to Putney Punt in the West to Cockatoo Island in the East. Our harbour series take one division to Shark Island and back and the other to Fort Denison and back.
Our clubhouse is very well located on the tip of Looking Glass Point (end of Wharf Road Gladesville) and provides a spectacular platform for watching the racing and passing traffic and provides some amazing sunset views. We post reports after each weekend race, you can find them on the Sailing - Race Reports tab. Club yachts successfully compete through the season in numerous other harbour and inter-club events. These include the Australia Day Regatta, Balmain Regatta and the West Harbour Combined Club Summer Series - the latter two organised and run by Balmain Sailing Club. Contact us on 02 9816 3916 on race days for more info. |
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Vale - John (Sumo) McFarlane It is with great sadness that we advise that John McFarlane passed away in early October due to ongoing health issues. May he rest in peace. He raced the yacht Not So Squeezy and was a strong competitor. Although John left Sydney some years ago now to live on the Central Coast, he still keenly followed the racing at the club, particularly the antics of Barry O, Speedo, Willo, Nuts and Carl. Our thoughts go out to John's wife (Suzette) and children Luke and Carley and his many friends at this sad time. Vale - Leonard Player It is with great sadness that we advise that we lost Lenny Player in late September after many health issues. May he rest in peace. Please see the link below to watch the Funeral Mass. Our thoughts go out to Lenny's many, many friends at this time. https://youtu.be/woQ2abcbHsg Although Covid restrictions will start to ease in NSW, racing is on hold until further notice. We are working through the various challenges of managing the strict requirements that must be met to enable racing at the club. We will advise our reopening schedule as soon as we can. We are using Race Qs on more and more boats in the fleet!! Ask us how you can get Race Qs tracking your boat. |
