A massive thank you to all the cadets who entered and all the adults who helped train, transport and support the cadets - including a very supportive parental contingent.

This is what it is all about - working together to give these young people a real head start in life through nautical adventure and fun.

Following a large entry to the Regatta it is Very pleasing to have a unit full of cadets who are highly skilled across the board, which reflects the units adaptability and consistency in multiple disciplines.

Thank you and well done.

The unit has an immensely proud Commanding Officer.
