You have no problem at all with weight or height. We have a range of weights from 70 through 115 kilos and all are competitive. Mike Williams, 2nd in World Championships at 6'2" and 110kgs. Some say optimal is around 90kg and fighting fit, however the boat can be tuned (sail and mast bend) to suit individual sizes. Where abouts are you? If in Melbourne let us know and you can come and have a sail in one of our Association boats.
regards
Richard Furneaux

G'day Ronny,
The lads sail each weekend at Adelaide Sailing Club, suggesting contacting anyone of them to talk about the boats and what is happening. Nationals will be in Adelaide this coming January.

Ronny definitely make your way down to Adelaide sailing club. We sail most saturdays and can throw you in a boat for a sail to see what you think. Email me if you are interested. Cheers
