Another SheSails Regatta at Toronto has been and gone and what a fabulous event it was!
On 18 February in perfect sailing weather, 23 boats all with a female helm and a large female contingent across the whole fleet competed in the RMYC SheSails regatta.
Congratulations to our winners.
1st place: Equinox (LMYC), helmed by Eleanor Cunningham
2nd place: Titoki (RANSA) helmed by Frances Beaumont
3rd place: Misguided (WASC), helmed by Emily Fatches
After the race we had lots of smiles and happy faces in the clubhouse where, prior to the presentation, the crew and supporters enjoyed a delicious BBQ.
A big thanks to the following supporters who also contributed to the success of the regatta:
Emerson's on the Lake, Marine Outlet, Specsavers Kotara & Helen Ure - The Artsy Image
