2013 saw a great many special moments for teams and individuals across the Post area. This week, we look back at some of those achievements and highlight the exceptional talents at the region's disposal. Here's wishing all readers another successful year in 2014.
RS:X windsurfer Imogen Sills was crowned European Champion in August after a windless final day of the 2013 EUROSAF Youth Sailing European Championships in Tavira, Portugal.
The RYA RS:X UK Youth Squad sailor emulated the success of her twin sister Saskia Sills at the 2012 event in Aarhus, Denmark last year by dominating proceedings from start to finish.
The 17-year-old from Launceston opened her European account with a bang, taking nothing but races wins from the first two days of competition to cement her position at the top of the leaderboard from the outset.
Continuing her fine form, the Tavistock College school student entered the final day of racing on Friday with eight race wins under her belt from the 12 race series and an eight point cushion over her nearest rival Maelle Guilbaud from France.
