RPNYC win National Bank Cup
 

Royal Port Nicholson Yacht Club sent two teams to compete in the National Bank International Youth Match Racing Championships in Auckland over the last five days. The club’s top combination of Junior, Steven and Jones was sent to this regatta along with a rookie team consisting of Porebski, Janey Goedhart, Christie Osbourne and Adam Middleton.

Junior and team sailed a flawless regatta winning 22 of their 23 matches to convincingly win the championships for the second year in a row. The regatta is now over 20 years old and has only ever been won three times by the same skipper and this is the first time it has been one twice by the same team. The list of past winners includes many America's cup sailors. The importance of this victory is put into perspective by the fact that Jimmy Spithil, the current America's Cup champion, won this event twice in the late 1990s.  

Adding to this outstanding result was the performance of Porebski and team who sailed a strong first regatta, ultimately making the semi finals and finishing in fourth place overall.
