Over the last week the Australian Youth Championships was held down at Sorrento Sailing Couta Boat Club over 4 days from the 10th to the 14th of January with over 240 boats from across Australia and overseas with 13 of which coming from Mornington. The weather conditions over the week where very variable with the first day bringing big winds of 20 knots + with the second day being 10 to 15 and the last two days had a mixture of light winds, strong tide and large amounts of smoke leading to both of them being called off leading to a two day regatta. Despite not sailing on the final two days of the regatta we still had a lot of fun spending time with our friends from both Victoria and interstate.
Even with the unfavorable conditions MYC still had some great performances with James Jackson and Lachie Caldwell placing 3rd in the 420s, Zac Heyes and Ethan Hosking placing 7th in the 29ers and Jack Eickmeyer placing 12th in an extremely competitive laser radial fleet ahead of the world championships taking place at Sandringham in February.
