Proud to be second

[Triton II]

My youngest and eldest boys teamed up to sail in the NSW State Junior Heron Sailing Titles last weekend. They oh-so-nearly won the event but confused the last race course instructions and sailed out of the lead (by rounding an extra mark that wasn't part of the course) into second for second overall. I was so proud that they accepted their fate with a smile and were genuine in their congratulations to the winner.<br />

Nice outcome, they could teach certain famous adult sailors a thing or two about sportsmanship.
