One day was lost due to lack of wind but these races were made up on the last 2 days of racing.
Overall the competitors were well behaved and provided tight racing. The facilities were what was to be expected from a club of the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron's standing and coped with the competitor numbers in an efficient manner, including the launch and recovery of the boats..
Two courses were used, one for the Standard and 4.7 fleet and the other for the Radial Fleet. There was a IRO on bravo course and a NRO on alpha course. The race management teams and support teams were very professional and no problems arose.
