We’d like to share some incredible news! Emily H of Year 12 and James H (alumni) have certainly proven themselves as top contenders in the F18 Catamaran class with their remarkable achievements at the Youth World Championships in Costa Brava. Despite facing challenging conditions like strong winds and unfortunate incidents such as someone capsizing through their mainsail and collision, they showed great resilience and skill throughout the regatta.
Qualifying for the Gold fleet alone is a significant accomplishment, and to then emerge as Youth World Champions is truly outstanding!! It’s a testament to their dedication, teamwork, and sailing prowess. Additionally, securing 3rd place in the Mixed fleet category further shows their versatility and ability to compete at a high level across different divisions.
Competing against 134 boats from various nations must have been a thrilling and intense experience.
We are all incredibly proud for both Emily and James and congratulate you on this outstanding achievement. May these memories last a lifetime for you and everyone who supported them along the way.
