John et Imogene Pierce meet themselves on the second step of the podium John is a well know bristish catamaran sailor. He'd been engaged in two Olympics preparation. Not really involved in the International circuit, John still on of the sharpest helm of the british fleet. Imogene is the macot of the team GBR. We saw her running the last Worlds with beautiful results. Fot those XV th Worlds, the father and daughter formed a great team for an amazing result, two first places, and three places of second wich erase a BFD and a DSQ. Who led the other on the podium ? |

Brian and Katy Phipps picks up the bronze medal
These last years, we had known Brian Phipps with a screwdriver supporting the Dart sailors on the british circuit and abroard. It was to forget that Brian is a also a great helm. Crewed by his daughter, Brian finished third of the XV th Worlds, with not less than three first places. the best score of this championship. The two BFD of the second day were just a bad souvenir for this pillar of the Dart class. |
