University Of Sydney - Winners . Photo taken by Jenna Walters Three universities had a fighting chance to win the title, but Jaidan Steven’s team from University Of Sydney did enough to maintain his overnight lead and win the championship.
James Burman from Macquarie University made the Sydney University team fight hard till the very end. The race area was tricky as wind conditions were light and shifty. All teams kept everyone on the edge of their seats, as racing was extremely close. The race committee did a fantastic job to complete seven races.
University Of Sydney was awarded the prestigious Australian University Sailing Association rolling trophy for the year 2013. The new national champions were also awarded selection to represent Australia at the 2013 Student Yachting World Cup in Pronic, France to be held later in October this year.
