2021 WA Hobie Cat State Championships at Esperance Bay Yacht Club by Susan Ghent 5 Apr 19:40 UTC 3-4 April 2021
What a treat for the Hobie 16 teams who made the journey to Esperance for the Crossview Enterprises 2021 WA Hobie Cat State Championships.
Located in the south east of the state of Western Australia Esperance is a unique holiday destination blessed with some of the most pristine waters, white sands and best beaches in the country. Competitors enjoyed fantastic conditions for Hobie Cat racing, right in front of the town centre.
Holding the championship event over the Easter long weekend encouraged teams to travel the eight hour journey with their families to do some sightseeing and enjoy a post event holiday.
