Sailors from around South Australia are hoping to bring some good form in to the second round of the South Australian Youth Tri Series event at the Largs Bay Sailing Club this weekend, a month after the first round finished in Port Lincoln.
The tri series event, sponsored by The Sailing Shop, is a three-part youth regatta in South Australia that prepares young sailors for their national championships at Christmas time.
At the conclusion of the three tri series rounds, the overall winners for each class are presented as well as the presentation of the best performing club team.
The first round over the October long weekend at the Port Lincoln Yacht Club set the scene for what is expected to be an exciting weekend of racing at Largs Bay, which will then be followed by the final tri series event at Brighton and Seacliff Yacht Club in December.
The 420, international cadet and optimist open and green fleets took part in the first leg and we should expect to see a stronger contingent of Adelaide-based competitors at the first metropolitan leg of the regatta.
Those who sailed well in Port Lincoln, including Angus Higgins and Joshua Tonkin in the 420, Alyssa and Mitchell Kelsey in the international cadet and Ben Hinks in the optimist, will look to continue their form and continue leading their respective classes heading in to round three.
