We hope this Australian update finds all fellow MUSTO sailors around the world safe and well. Since the last update in June, the COVID-19 outlook has been more optimistic for much of Australia, except for those in the state of Victoria, where unfortunately high-level restrictions are still in place.

This includes an optimistic outlook for the Australian Nationals, currently scheduled for late December at Black Rock Yacht Club in Melbourne.
