The Juniors, ages 8-12, were broken down into Under 12 and 12+ age groups. Some of the sailors were experienced Opti and 420 racers while others had never thought about "competition" before. The short courses and fast-paced format worked well for the wide range of ability levels. Josh Morrell from Tortola took the hotly contested U12 division with Sam Shannon sneaking the Freestyle. Max Lewis (son of Cam) took the "Oldsters" Freestyle with Elie Jordi & Rasmus Sayre styl'n the Tandem Freestyle Division. Elise Gehling not only had the lowest race score in the 12+ age group, but demonstrated such excellent sportsmanship and was so supportive of the younger sailors that she was awarded the Overall Prize for "Un-Regatta Spirit". The crowd erupted with "oohs" and "aahs" as Elise gleefully accepted the coveted BIC surf board as Grand Prize.
