CSC Optimist Championship 2019 (Silver Fleet) Final Day

Today marks the closing of the CSC Optimist Championships (Silver Fleet) 2019. The sailors were all excited and pumped, to give it their all for the last 2 races of the regatta.

Participants welcomed the more forgiving conditions on the final day, with sunny skies and a constant 10-12 knots wind blowing from the North.

The first warning signal of the day went off at 1100Hrs. As we drew near to the start, sailors started crowding on the line. The race committee and the Pin-end had to be on their toes to watch the line. Fortunately, it was a clear start for both races.

Xuan Yu secured his position as the champion for this regatta, after achieving 2 bullets for both races today, leaving him with an insurmountable 11-point lead over second boat- Jayden Khor, and an 18-points apart from third boat- Ryan Goh.

CSC Youth Team sailor Cheryl Yong displayed a strong performance for her final 2 races.?emerging 5th overall after clinching a 6th and 4th in races 8 & 9 respectively. However, the winds weren?t in both Ikuto and Trevor?s favour, landing them both with rough finishes, and plunging their overall results to 17th and 24th respectively. Special shoutout to Heng Yi & Giselle! 2 of our tiniest sailors participated in these daunting conditions, and never once did they throw in the towel. They can take pride in the fact that they held their own and finished most, if not all of the races.
