We had a good group of sailors competing in the Regatta this year with Jen Spalding as the Coach and Team Leader. Jen, Gina and Natalia flew from Los Angeles after the PCC's in Monterey . Alex Ninow, Alex Shepard, Tony Henderson and Gabe Frame fly directly to Halifax Sandra and Micheal Shepard (Alex's parents) accompanied the team. The Team training in the YOTs pre training camp, as Jen was one of the guest experts. The regatta began on Saturday August 9th , ending on the 13th. Generally a light air event with high points for the team depending on the race. Tony finished in 2nd overall in the 4.7 Laser. Gina was 8th , Natalia 13th ,Alex Ninow 14th in the Women's Radial. Gabe 25th and Alex Shepard 33rd in the Mens Radial. Overall a great success for the team with good breakthroughs for Tony and Gina.
Good experience for all the sailors , with sights set on next years regatta in Victoria.
