ParticipantSabre Association members
The committee and members of the Albert Sailing Club (ASC) will be pleased to welcome Sabre class association members to sail with our active club Sabre fleet during the winter months. Our winter sailing season commenced in mid June. In particular we look forward to hosting 5 events in the 2008 Sabre Association winter series. The water level in Albert Park Lake has risen over the last three months and is currently good for sailing. While not at maximum depth, the water level is the best it has been for three years.

ParticipantWeather Update – Great Sailing at the Mudpuddler Regatta:
We should have some excellent winter sailing at the Regatta this weekend, no rain forecast, and a lively wind to hope for, if you believe the BOM:Boating Forecast for Port Phillip and Western Port
Issued at 1625 on Wednesday the 2nd of July 2008: …
Saturday
Northerly wind of 10 to 15 knots, increasing to 15 to 20 knots during the
morning. …
Sunday
Northerly wind of 15 to 25 knots. …Translation for the Lake:
Good brisk sailing, lots of fun! Days like this the lake comes alive when there’s no sailing on the bay.Ron F******** – ‘Hun’ 1009 – Albert Sailing Club.
