29er Class Association of New Zealand

Congratulations to Alexandra Maloney and Sam Bullock who have secured the silver medal in the ISAF youth worlds in Istanbul, Turkey in the Open 29er skiff event in which 18 nations were competing.
They were 4th in the last race and unable to catch the French team of Gael Jaffrezic and Julien Bloyet of France who went into the last day with the lead and won the final race to claim the gold medal. The New Zealanders were five points back, and five points clear of the bronze medal winners Antoine Screve and James Moody of the USA.
Maloney and Bullock have sailed solidly throughout the regatta which has produced challenging light and shifty winds at times, especially in the early stages. Just prior to this regatta they finished fifth, and second best youth team at the 2010 Open 29er European Championships.
