The Noosa Yacht and Rowing Club was the host venue for the sailing of the Sunshine Coast Inter-Schools regatta last week. Now in its 20th year, thanks to the continuing support of Stratogen Accountants, this regatta is a showcase for schools sailing talent across the coast and a fantastic opportunity for these young sailors to sail as a team whilst representing their school.
There was a total of 22 teams from 9 schools racing in primary and Secondary school divisions. Sailors and race officials were challenged by the light winds of the weekend but managed to complete a total of 15 races. In the Primary Division the overall winner was Mathew Flinders Anglican College – Marcel Klatsmanyi and Kristen Pugh, second was Good Shepherd Lutheran College – Lachlan Sinclair, Harry Cumner and Zach May, and third place went to St Andrews Anglican College – Gabe Taubenschalg and Will Piva.
The Secondary division winner was Mathew Flinders Anglican College – James Beveridge and Eloise Jessett, second Sunshine Coast Grammar – Mathew Green and Sean Saunders, and third Good Shepherd Lutheran College – Rylie Sinclair and Jake Bray.
