Every two years, the International One Metre (IOM) class of radio-controlled yachts invites the best radio-controlled sailors from around the globe to compete for World Championship glory.

The eyes of the radio sailing community have turned to Queensland, Australia as the harbour city of Gladstone is ready to host this prestigious international event. A total of 76 sailors (the maximum) have entered from 20 countries, including 15 Australians.

The Gladstone facility is certainly very impressive, providing the best on-water racing experience for competitors, teamed with enjoyable off-water social experiences, hospitality and fellowship.
