The 2nd South East Asian Para Sailing Championships, 27th - 31st March. This was the an Open Regional Event which closed with a rousing, fun filled awards ceremony!
Special mention must be made of the team from Thailand who came both 1st and 3rd in the Hansa 303 double handed division despite having never sailed in that boat or in HK previously!
Foo Wai Yuen dominated the 2.4mR class winning all 9 races in the Championship.
Fung Wai On dominated the Hansa 303 single handed division.
In the Hansa Liberty class it was a tight finish for first place with Chan Tsun Ming coming out top.
There were medals for the first 3 placed competitors in each class. Special certificates were awarded to coaches, and volunteers in the race management team, the media team and support team who in their many different ways all helped make the event such a success.
