girls gone winning

Two former SCOTW winners are in the spotlight today, the first for something we should’ve recognized last month but didn’t – LYC junior phenom Erika Reineke’s gold medal performance at the Laser Radial Youth Worlds last month.  We continue to be impressed with the number of top sailors that the Florida program turns out, and there are more to come.  Check out a local news article about Erika here, watch a video here, and thanks to JStar for the heads up.

The other big winner was Maureen McKinnon-Tucker, who, with one day of racing left, owns 5 bullets in 5 races at the Claggett Memorial Regatta and clinic.  Mo’s winning in the Sonars with John Porter and Gary Tiernan, and the class is not restricted to able bodied sailors.   Nicely done, ladies!
