KZN Grand Prix Series is hotting up !



KZN GP series 1 is done and dusted! Two days of perfect sailing conditions at Island Sailing Club.

"Maestro" McNiel showed his experience gained from having been to Worlds. Click here to see the results of GP1.

GP2 is just around the corner. 31 Oct and 1 Nov....... Whow, that's close!

Get your boats ready.....!! Get up to Midmar.....!! Remember, that Nationals will also be held at Midmar in December, and this GP2 will give our KZN kids a good preparation for Nationals!

Rumour has it that the "Maestro" is moving on to a 4.7....... This opens the top spot of the GP series for any one. Hey "Maestro"....., think again!
