Balance the Scales" takes center stage as ORCV KISS Training Program and SYC Women's Development Program join forces for an interactive forum on March 2. Sailing Master Dee Mason leads the charge, captivating the audience with humor and insights.

Veteran Sophie Snijders shares her live-aboard adventures, inspiring attendees with her journey. A polling session reveals that 92% of the female audience are over 40, with 58% as keelboat racers. Barriers include skill gaps and confidence issues, while sailing brings confidence, joy, and community.

The evening culminates in the creation of a Victorian Women's Sailing Network WhatsApp group, aimed at connecting women sailors and promoting opportunities in Victoria. The aggregated keelboat calendar is now available on the ORCV KISS ALIVE webpage. More collaboration is on the horizon to enhance women's keelboat sailing. Stay tuned for upcoming training events!
