Victorian 29ers Championships 2014 was held over the weekend of 22nd and 23rd February. What a great weekend for the Victorian 29ers, those that made the journey to Geelong (Skiff Paradise) had experienced great conditions for sailing.

Royal Geelong Yacht Club ran a wonderful regatta and ordered perfect weather, with moderate winds on the Saturday and perfect 5-15knots on Sunday.

Second was 13 year old Optimist sailor Harrison Sly teamed with experienced Tom Dwyer and third class new comers Josh Galland and Leroy Addison.
