Another Oakville sailor, skipper Aaron Trenholme, competed in the races, with Paige Tees of Thunder Bay as crew. The 50 top Sea Cadet sailors competed to test navigation skills and endurance ability. "During the past week, a kind of camaraderie was established among the sea cadets," said Cody Coté, the Regatta Co-ordinator. "They were ready and they all competed well." While the weather was fine, the light winds added to the difficulty of the event. "Sailing well in light, shifting winds is a real challenge," Coté said.
