TBYC at the F18 World Championships
David White and Jon Sweet are off to the F18 Worlds on Friday, this year the worlds are been held in Erquy France, which is just along the coast from St Malo.
We have qualified as the 2nd fastest F18 in the UK and will be racing against over 165 other F18’s including all the worlds best catamaran sailors. Racing starts on Monday going on till Friday, we are hoping to gain a top 30 finish and been one of the top three GBR teams.
Results will be posted after every race on the Worlds website http://www.cvberquy.org/f18worlds2010/ every boat at the worlds will be equipped with a GPS tracking device which will allow any of the boats to be tracked online live during each race. If anyone is feeling bored at work its well worth a look I’m sure my dad will be watching intently shouting and the screen when we don’t tack on a shift!
Ill let everyone know how we get on and I hope to be down the club soon.
David White
