Madeleine are 2014 UK J/24 National Champions

Duncan McCarthy and his team on Madeleine (GBR 4265) have won the 2014 UK National Championship Trophy from Bob Turner (Serco – GBR 4247) and Nick Phillips (Chaotic – GBR 4177). 20 teams signed up for the event which was blessed with  fair sailing and sunshine with everything from 5 to 20 kts of breeze, surf, slop and flat water, ensuring that the teams on top were masters of all conditions.

Each race saw race leads seesaw as the fierce competition pushed teams and kept everyone on their toes. However by the time each race came to conclusion Madeleine had worked their way into the top places leaving them with an enviable scoreline counting nothing less than a 3rd place.
