West Lancs Junior Teams take on the 12 Hour Race Challenge!

Well done to all of the sailors who participated in this year's National Junior 12 Hour Race - including two teams from West Lancs! The interest in the event has increased with twice the numbers of entries compared to last year, which will hopefully continue to build. 

This year's event was a real test of endurance in very challenging wind conditions! However, every team was up to the challenge - although there were plenty of capsizes along the way, every boat which started also finished the gruelling 12 hour marathon sail, with Budworth Sailing Club the winners this year, and several other Clubs including West Lancs taking home some well-deserved trophies. 

The event requires weeks of preparation by the sailors, parents and team coaches, as well as the organisers, race officials and safety boats of Southport Sailing Club, who all deserve thanks and congratulations.
