Middle Harbour Yacht Club Success at Sydney 38 NSW Championships

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—Speaker I want to recognise women of the Middle Harbour Yacht Club on their success in the Sydney 38 NSW Championships. The all-female crew of Calibre, skippered by Liz Charles, were predominantly Middle Harbour Yacht Club members. Calibre took out fourth overall on countback after scoring 2-4-3 results on day two. This is an extraordinary result for a new team in this class. I want to congratulate skipper Liz Charles and her entire crew for this excellent result. The crew consisted of Tracy Richardson, Celine Rumbelow, Caitlin Worsley, Danielle Brown, Catherine Thornton-Rofe, Kylie Twible, Gemma Radsall, Michelle Tait, and Teresa Lane. Well done to each of you. This is a great outcome for yourselves individually, for the Middle Harbour Yacht Club, and for women in sport. Thank you to Club Commodore and Director Peter Lewis, and the entire Board, for your continuous work supporting the Club. Your strong administration contributes significantly to the success of the Club overall and results such as this. Your strong leadership provides excellent opportunities for men, women, and youth in sailing along with the work you do in the wider community.
