With Samantha coaching at Royal Tay Cadet Week Joanne decided to accept a long standing invitation from cousin and Topper 4.2 maestro Alastair Ferguson to come sail with him on the very tidal waters of the famous silvery Tay.
Having made a very last minute decision to take advantage of grandad's better condition in the hospice and head over to the 2012 Topper World Championships at Workum in Holland this also presented a great chance to shake off the Topper cobwebs and get in some practice. Joanne was therefore delighted to enjoy four hotly contested races in the TYCA Youth Regatta and come away with the Topper class win and also the much coveted overall trophy for the all classes handicap race comprising a variety of Lasers, Toppers, few as and RS 500, a terra and various other assorted youth vessels. Joanne was also able to confirm the very high standard of the local competition which shows that Samantha's coaching had perhaps been of some help to the enthusiastic home fleet.
Well done all.
