JULIAN MANDIWALL AWARD PRESENTED TO COLIN GORDON FOR RADIO SAILING TUITION SESSIONS

Published 00:00 on 12 Dec 2024

Presented to Colin Gordon by our Commodore Dave Cooper, for initiating our on-water radio-sailing practice sessions (thumb control!) and teaching the Radio sailing version of the Racing rules of Sailing.

His willingness to turn out in all weathers throughout the year has inspired many of our members to spread their wings and sail in open meetings beyond series racing at Emsworth and even into Europe.

That Emsworth Radio Sailing has been chosen to award this trophy to one of its club members, is a real compliment in itself and a recognition of the part we play in promoting the sport of sailing locally.

Congratulations Colin on winning the Julian Mandiwall Award - a special award given to those individuals who are considered to have made an outstanding contribution to sailing.
