RORC Member crowned World SB3 Champion
2010-jerry-hill-sb3-world-championRORC member Jeremy Hill was a happy man today along with crew mates Joe Llewellyn and Grant Rollerson on their SB3 Three Sad Blokes. One hundred and six Laser SB3's from sixteen different nations gathered on Lake Garda for the world championships. Three Sad Blokes came out top in a dramatic 14 race series, beating the previous holders from South Africa, into second place.

"Absolutely thrilled," admitted Jeremy Hill, "it has been a tough week in some pretty big breeze. Our speed off the line was great and that meant that when we got away well at the start, we were confident of winning every race, we managed five wins in the series. However, on the occasions that we did not get away well, we managed to convert a low position to a top ten result by some excellent downwind work; Grant Rollerson is a highly accomplished skiff sailor and his asymmetric experience was a big part of our win."
