Five children from TBYC entered the Cadet Nationals in Torquay last week. GBR 8541 Alex Warrington & Laura Lloyd (sailing in her last event due to age) finished in 24th place. GBR 9029 Matthew & Katy Lloyd finished one point behind 8541 but due to count back their place was 26th. Ben Warrington crewing for Katherine Selfe from Stone Sailing Club in 7280 came 47th. It was an excellent event with 73 boats taking part – that’s 146 inspired young people on the water in 10 very competitive races over the course of the week. The event was won by Nick Sutton & Josh Bennett in 8844 from Corinthian Otters at RCYC Burnham. For more information on the UK Cadet Class please speak to Howard Warrington, myself or see http://www.cadetclass.org.uk
