2012 John Cootes A Division Catamaran National Championships

A lot has been written about the recently concluded A Cat Australian Champs.

Not much to add here except to agree that it was a fantastic regatta and a great way to learn about these elegant and sophisticated boats.

The hosts were generous and hospitable, the race management was smooth and efficient and the competitors represented a broad cross-section of our sport, from professionals to passionate enthusiasts.
The weather ranged through the whole spectrum and the atmosphere was exciting, welcoming and family friendly.

Below is a selection of links to reports, pictures and videos.

We are looking forward to developing equipment to fulfill the needs of this market in the next years!
