Published 01:00 on 18 Jul 2025
From 11th to 13th July, Staunton sailors enjoyed the competition and fun as over 100 sailors took to the water to compete in the Streaker Dinghy Golden Jubilee Inland Championships held at Rutland Sailing Club. With five races over three days, it was a fantastic opportunity to pit sailing skills and tactical know how against sailors from across the country.
Congratulations to all our Staunton competitors for their outstanding performances:
- Tom Gillard took the crown once again, lifting the trophy for an incredible 11th time with four race wins to his name — truly outstanding sailing!
- Rachael Gray sailed brilliantly to secure 1st Lady Helm and an impressive 7th place overall.
- Peter Gray finished a strong 6th overall, with a 1st and 2nd place in his counted races — very impressive!
- Nigel Pepperdine and Alan Bennett also showed great determination and skill, finishing 22nd and 51st respectively. Well done!
Stauntons top three boats also secured 2nd place in the Altogether Shield, a great result for Staunton as a club.
