Quentin Jenkins excels at AYC Junior Regatta

Yesterday the FBYC junior race team sent 4 420s, 3 Optis, and One Laser Radial (along with 2 coaches, 3 motorboats, and about 10 parents) to the Annapolis Yacht Club Junior Regatta. In the photo Quentin Jenkins displays a big smile and two thumbs up, indicating his pleasure at his first place finish in the previous race. On the day he ended up with a 3rd in class after about seven races.
In the 420s, Alex O'Toole and Sophie Massie sailed the best of the FBYC boats, yet the competition was very numerous and tough. They finished about the middle of the 18 boat fleet. The rest of the FBYC sailors, Kathryn Clinard and Lina Scott, Annie MacKinnon and Sara Hargrove, and Mark Alderman and Billy Carwile finished in that order but all within a point or two of each other. As Annie said later - "there are a lot of really good sailors at this regatta". I have posted a lot of pictures of the Juniors taken in Annapolis.
Madelaine Alderman, Ben Buhl, and Austin Powers all had a great day in the very large Optimist Fleets.
Following the races, following a very hard days work, the Coaches - Juan and Arel - relaxed beside the new Company Car - an Aston Martin DB9.
