Just back from Clearwater Sailing Center again where I spent a week training with coaches Chris Hewson, Chris Cowan, the Ontario Sailing Teams (Elite and Development) as well as Aug and the RNSYS team. A great variety of conditions gave us a chance to work at our skills. All in all a great week working hard and playing hard with this bunch! I may never get the Surf Style jingle out of my head...

This February I had the opportunity to sail at the North American Midwinter East Regatta in Clearwater Florida.
The Ontario Sailing Team arrived a few days prior to the start of the regatta to train and prep for the local conditions.
With 100 boats in the fleet we sailed 6 races to split the fleet and this year I was pleased to meet my goal of qualifying for the gold fleet (the top half of the fleet). In the final round the gold fleet sailed 4 more races where I finished up 37th overall (100 boats total), with my best race being an 11th place finish.
Overall a great experience and I am very pleased with my progress over last year's placing of 42/59 in Silver Fleet or 101st (118 boats total).
