Do you have what it takes to be crowned the VIC Ronstan Junior Foiling Champion?

The inaugural event at Bayview Yacht Racing Association in NSW, was a resounding success, with competitors coming from over 1000km to take part. Sailors came from a range of classes like Optimist, Open-Skiff, F11 and 13' Skiffs, and delivered some awesome racing with none of the top 6 finalists having ever foiled before, foiling across the start and finish line at high speed! The average age was 13 years old, 42% were females, and various weights from 30-70kgs!

The Nikki foiling dinghy has been selected as the ideal craft for this competition as it is small, manageable and easy for junior sailors to learn on, while being versatile, affordable and safe. With a planing hull, wings and foils, it is certainly exciting to sail and provides the full experience and thrill of both planing and foiling.

The Australian events are proudly supported by Ronstan, Australian Sailing and Forward WIP as The Official Safety Partner as well as Doyle Sails, CST Composites, Skeeta Watersports and the Nikki Sailing Association of Australia Inc.
