James Hodgson and team take Bronze for Australia at the Nations Cup

Congratulations to James Hodgson, Harry Hall, Ryan Wilmot and Charlie Gundy on taking the Bronze Medal for Australia in the 2019 World Sailing Nations Cup in San Francisco.

James and team finished off a great Match Racing regatta, going down in a close fought semi final 2-3 to Brazil and then coming back out to beat USA 2-0 in the Bronze Medal sail off.

James says the team is delighted with their result:  “The level of racing was amazing, the conditions were difficult and every team was top class. We’ve never had to work so hard for every win.”

James next takes a Mooloolaba Yacht Club Match Racing team to Darwin at the end of April, to compete in the Arafura Games, a multi sport games featuring International teams from South East Asia and the Pacific. James crew for this event features MYC Youth and Women’s Program sailors including Stu Kennedy, James Beveridge, Emily McGregor and India Howard (CYCA).
