CORK serie I
CORK serie I was a hard regatta. The wind never really allowed us to get on a clear plane. The level of sailors was very high as the European champion and 2nd place was there. Also the company PS 2000 chartered many boats from the Youth Worlds for 1$ to make the event bigger.
A total or 63 boats came to the event.
We finished 12th.
This is also the end of me coaching the Ontario 29er team. This was a great partnership. I think that everyone on the team benefited from my knowledge.
Now it is time to get ready for CORK serie II on the RSX.
___
C'est la fin de CORK serie I. Nous avons eu des conditions difficile pour des "gros" marins comme Andrew et moi. Nous avons fini 12ième sur 63.
Le niveau était très élevé. Les champions et vice champions des championnats Européens étaient présent.
C'est aussi la fin de mon partenariat avec l'équipe de voile de l'Ontario. Je pense que tout le monde a apprécié mon travail.
C'est maintenant le moment de faire de la planche pour CORK serie II

Youth World Wrap up
Strong shifty winds wrap up the Regatta
Competitors were greeted with close to gale force winds early on that tapered off to just some plain solid wind, at 16-20 knots with big shifts and large velocity changes. Canada’s overall outcomes on the day were not what dreams are made of but our sailors on all fronts showed character and were true ambassadors to the sport and to Canada. All should be commended for their perseverance over the course of the event and their dedication to their personal best performances. With only one race scheduled, the entire team went out to give it their all for one last time.
On the Single Handed course Robert Davis fought with the heavy winds and placed 22nd in his fleet. At the end of the regatta, he finished in 14th place over all - a fantastic achievement given the amount of time he has been able to train in these conditions.
Isabella Berthold also worked very hard in today's race but her 10th place finish with dropped her to 7th overall in the fleet. Still, the experience was a fantastic add to her sailing resume, and we hope to see a lot more of Isabella in the years to come.
On the Double Handed course, the tough conditions provided an opportunity for everyone to test themselves in tough conditions. 29er Boys representatives Nicholas Kroeger and Peter Soosalu placed 16th in today’s race, which put them in 21st place overall in the fleet at the end of the event.
The 29er Girls Alanna Foscarini and Alison Ledzki managed to finish 10th in today’s race which moved them up to 13th position overall.
In the Hobie class, Mark Pataky and Jon Scott applied the lessons learned earlier in the week and pulled an 11th place finish today, and in the end finished the regatta in 14th place overall.
On the Windsurfer course, David Hayes attacked the start line because he wanted to get a bullet - which was needed in order to move up and challenge for a medal. Unfortunately, David was over the start line early and scored an OCS today, which left him at a very respectable 6th overall, and the top Canadian at the event.
When asked about the event, Canadian Head Coach Ken Dool stated “Another event down, more experience gained and now the opportunity to reflect and address both strengths and shortcomings in the weeks and months ahead. This event in reality is just the tip of the iceberg for some of these young athletes, their sailing careers in earnest just in the infancy stages, growth will come from here, it is those that can take what they learned and but it into constructive practice that will be successful in the future.”
Congratulations to the entire team. They said at the outset that they are "not here to not win" and regardless of their final positions they won through the experience that they gained at this event as they continue on their international sailing competitive career. For most, this was their first VOLVO Youth Sailing ISAF World Championship but not their last.

Entraînement à Montréal
C'est l'entraînement régulier qui fait progresser. En ce moment je focus sur mon entraînement physique en prennant des cours à CrossFit Montréal
En plus je fais au moins une session sur l'eau 5 à 6 jours semaine (parfois deux).
Ça commence déjà à ce voir. Je peux passer plus de temps sur l'eau et mes manoeuvres commencent à être plus solides par vent faible. Il me reste à travailler le vent médium et fort. Je n'ai pas encore vraiment eu l'occasion de naviguer par plus de 12 noeuds.
___
These days I train with CrossFit Montreal to improve my overall fitness and be able to sail longer sessions and have more power.
I also sail 5-6 days a week on the RSX. My light air sailing is getting better but I need some windier days to start to learn how to plane.
One step at a time.

OST camp
This week end I was in Toronto to coach the Ontario 29er Sailing Team.
Over all it was a good camp even if we didn't get much wind. It is good to focus on fitness, nutrition and physical preparation too.
___
Cette fin de semaine j'entraînais l'équipe de 29er de l'Ontario. Malgré le peu de vent nous avons quand même eu un bon camp. Cela nous a donné le temps d'aborder la nutrition et préparation physique un peu plus en profondeur.
