New sailors in the racing division (Charlie); Elouan Gay started his racing path in good track, 1st in his division, Sisters Khalisha Shahrom and Afiya Shahrom fought for 2nd & 3rd spots. With just 1 point difference, Khalisha won (2nd place) Afiya (3rd) in their first time racing in MDR. Good job kiddos!
