It seems fitting to celebrate Claire and Sarah’s

It seems fitting to celebrate Claire and Sarah’s Western Australian State Titles win on International Women’s Day. Claire and Sarah, to the best of our knowledge, are the first all female crew to win the regatta.

Cherub sailors pride ourselves on being an open and inclusive fleet that shows our dedication to equality through action. The vast majority of our regattas are an even 50/50 split between men and women. At the end of the day we are all just Cherub Sailors, and are very proud of all the women, and men, who have come before us to forge an environment of inclusivity, and friendly camaraderie that makes the Cherubs such a fun class to sail.

Here's to all the ladies, past present and future who help make our class what it is. #australiancherubs #internationalwomensday #skifflife #equality #sailing

It was a pleasure to see 19 boats make the trip down to @lanecove12ftskiffs to participate in the Cherub Association’s ‘Non-Nationals’ Regatta over the Easter long weekend.

Undeterred by light easterly winds, sailors from across the Sydney region took to the water on Friday the 2nd of April, ready to start the three day regatta. The regatta saw for some very close racing. At the close of racing ‘Squealer’ won first place on scratch by a single point followed by ‘Quick Spoon’ and ‘Short, Tired and Emotional’ respectively. Handicap honours were taken out by Imogen Este and Caitlin Mulquiney in ‘The French Tickler’ by 11 points after a weekend of great sailing.

This regatta is marked by a series of achievements of which all participants should be proud. Over half the fleet was represented by juniors, 11 of 19 craft were helmed by women, and 5 all-girl crews chose to represent their clubs. It is this diversity of racers that marks the Cherub class as unique in the world of skiff racing. The fleet hopes to see this trend continue into their next Australian National Cherub Championships to be hosted at Perth Dinghy Sailing Club over the 2021/22 Christmas/New Year Period.

The Cherub National Council of Australia and Cherub Association of NSW would like to extend their warm thanks to their sponsors. Without the generous donations of @ctech_ltd and @goodcitizens_official, these events would not be able to occur. Please support them in supporting the future of sailing. The class would also like to acknowledge to tireless work of their volunteers and their hosts at @lanecove12ftskiffs. Thank you for making this event such a great success! For a more in-depth account of the weekends racing head over to our Facebook page.

We will see you on the water. #australiancherubs #skifflife #sydneyharbour
