A very big well done to Tabby who represented Staunton Harold SC in the Optimistic Class - Rookie Fleet at the ISA National Regatta at Draycote Water last week. Tabby took on a full day of racing competing in eight challenging races which tested every sailors skill and stamina.

It was a lively day on the water with tight racing and a few bumps along the way, but Tabby showed true perseverance. Even when things got scrappy and the competition was fierce, she stayed focussed and sailed with spirit.

We are incredibly proud to announce that Tabby was awarded the ISA Sportsmanship Award - a wonderful recognition of her resilience, positive attitude, and the way she carried herself throughout the event.

When we asked her what the best part of the day was, she said. Just being out on the water, getting the chance to sail, and making new friends.

Huge congratulations to Tabby - heres to lots more fun sailing, ahead.
