Logan Radford, who is a local sailor and instructor at the Gosford Sailing Club has won the title of Team of the Year along with his crew member Joel Beashel.

Currently busy studying for his High Scholl Certificate, his next step in the sailing world will be looking for a spot on a 49er, which is the Olympic Class for 2028 and 2032. Winning the UK Nationals in July this year and coming 5th in the World Championships in August has buoyed his passion and enthusiasm for the sport of sailing.

Since 1932, Gosford Sailing Club has evolved from an aquatic club with two 16ft skiffs in its sailing section to one which promotes the sport of sailing in all its forms.

The Clubs activities have been shaped by local economic conditions, social changes and revolutions in boat design and sailing techniques. Gosford Sailing Club is a non-profit organisation, and the clubhouse stands as a tribute to the men and women who have devoted much of their leisure time to running the Club and its programs. Over 90 years, the Club has promoted the sport of sailing to all in the community and today has several fleet divisions encompassing Sailability, SheSails, Yachts, Lasers, Off the Beach, Contenders and Tackers. The Club runs Learn to Sail programs for children through to adults, and everyone is welcome to come and enjoy the sailing activities and the clubhouse restaurant.
