Juniors making a splash at the e-sailing championships!

Published Tue 19 May 2020

The recent round of e-sailing Club Championships has seen many junior members take out the top spot to compete at this weekend’s e-sailing State Championships.

Finn Manning of the Geographe Bay Yacht Club in Western Australia took the great initiative of getting virtual regatta set up for his club to take part. It was tight racing between the group at GBYC but Finn managed clinch the win and will go forth to represent them at the State Championship.  

Another great win was that of ten year old Henri Levenspiel (pictured below) crowned Sorrento Sailing Couta Boat Club Virtual Sailing Champion, beating all competitors, some decades older! Members of all ages competed, from juniors like Henri to the more "mature" Couta Boat sailors, (even a past Commodore!), yet it was the talented junior sailor who took out the Championship, coming down to the last race in the series and will now represent the Club at the Victorian State Championships this weekend.
