ESC Powerboat Handling Course kicks off Sunday 20 September

Posted on by

A gale warning on Port Phillip Bay did not stop our Powerboat Handling course last Sunday 20 September! 

We may not have had the opportunity to practice on water, however Ross supported by Ken delivered an informative session with a focus on readying the boats for on-water duty and safety features of the individual boats.

A big thank you to those who participated, all willing to support race management at ESC.
Special thanks to Ross and Ken who lead the session.
