Molly Awarded The SDAYC 2009 Yachtswoman of the Year

The SDAYC Yachtswoman of the Year award is presented to the local woman sailor who has performed well thoughout the year, who has given back to the sport, and represents the sport in a sportsmanship-like manner.  This was the first time that Molly was nominated for the award and won it.  On winning the award, Molly said, "I am very honored to have been recognized among the best sailors in Southern California."

SDYC's opening day is also a big event for the yacht club as it marks the official start of the season.  The perpetual award was given to Molly with her hometown crowd watching and cheering for her. "It was great to have the hometown support for what we are doing despite us competing internationally most of the time," said Molly. "It's great to have so many people believing in what we can do, and having all of this support."

Molly won this award for her results in 2009 in the 470 class in which she was a crew.  She also was very successful last year on the match racing scene and the keelboat scene.  Some results included 1st at the Rolex International Women's Keelboat Championships, 2nd at the Rolex Osprey Cup, 3rd at the ISAF Nations Cup Grand Final, and was nominated for the second year straight for the US Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year.

Molly is now here in France preparing with the rest of Team Tunnicliffe for the Semaine Olympique Francaise, the fourth stop of the ISAF Sailing World Cup.  Racing starts tomorrow morning for the team.  You can follow the results online at the regatta website.

We would like to thank Carmeuse and Trinity Yachts for their support of our campaign for the 2012 Olympics.  We would also like to thank USSTAG for their support.
