RBYC staged an excellent regatta last sunday for the George McCallum Cup. With winds in the 12 - 15 kt range, final results were:
First place George McCallum Cup: Oliver Kalpokas
Second place: Kate Hannah
Third place: Lucy Davies
Taking home the George McCallum Trophy plate was James McLennan. This was awarded for James's determination and good sportsmanship throughout the regatta.
Well done to all those who participated in this classic sabot event.
