The Australian Sailing Team has had an impressive start to the Sail for Gold regatta in Weymouth, England.....
In the Laser fleet Tom Slingsby also had a perfect start to the regatta with two race wins, revelling in the conditions. 'It was a really good day for me,' said Slingsby. 'The wind was about a 15 knot offshore breeze with big shifts and I sailed pretty well, I thought I was quick and thought I was on the right part of the course so in all it was a good day to start the regatta and I’m starting to like this venue already.' 'There were plenty of waves and plenty of shifts with a solid breeze which is generally my strength, in all I think it’s perfect sailing out there, tricky but I’m enjoying it,' he said.
