Ashley Stoddart & Curtis Skinner
On a regular basis up to 85 Lasers race from the shores of the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron (RQYS). The Laser is by far the strongest fleet racing on the waters of Waterloo Bay and includes State, Australian and World Champions across all the disciplines in the class.
Emerging from the fleet are two youth sailors who give their elder competitors a serious run for their money.
Ashley Stoddart and Curtis Skinner will represent RQYS, Queensland and Australia at the 2009 Volvo Youth Sailing ISAF World Championship to be raced in July in the South American country of Brazil after both gained selection from their successful campaigns at the 2009 OAMPS Insurance Brokers Australian Youth Champions.
Their intense training schedules have paid off.
Curtis won the Laser Radial Boys while Ashley placed fourth overall and first Australian Radial Girl.
