Mike Leigh , Abe Torchinsky and Ricardo Montemayer attended the Laser Europeans in Sweden from Aug 1 to 8th, with Kevin Black as their coach.
The group did a training camp in lake Garda the week prior with some world class sailors. All in preparation for the upcoming laser worlds in Halifax beginning Aug 20th.
It appeared to be generally a light air event that was hard fought with the best in the world in attendance. Mike ended up 20th with a few tough races and Abe 57th in the gold fleet.
Ricardo sailed in the youth europeans and ended up third in the under 19 portion of the regatta. A very good result! Way to go Rick!

The boys fly direct to Nova Scotia for the build up to the Worlds.
We have a big team this year who have qualified: Mike, Abe , Rick, Luke Ramsay, Alex Heinzman and Andy Wong.
Kevin black will be coaching, Good Luck Guys !
