GP14 Worlds 2024

Congratulations to everybody who represented NSC at the 2024 GP14 World Championships at Plas Heli in Wales! Eighty five boats competed in the week long event, which concluded on Saturday.

Daniel Nelson, crewing for Ross Kearney from RNIYC, was in the 6th placed boat, and also took the Youth Crew award. Ross and Daniel were 2nd in 2 of the 8 races sailed, so right up at the sharp end! A brilliant 2nd in Bronze fleet (only 1 point behind 1st), and 27th overall, were Adam and Emily Torrens, who were closely followed by Stephen and Johnny (youngest crew competing?) Nelson in 28th. Curly Morris & Meg Tyrell were 39th, and whilst they had a couple of solid top twenty finishes, their discards were for a retirement and a DNC, that then then pushed them down the order somewhat. Finally in commendable 68th place overall, and the 4th placed all female crew, were Jennifer Bryce & Vivika Timmer. Well done to all!!
