Estate Master skipper Martin Hill with crew Malcolm Page have won Gold in the World Masters Games on Sydney Harbour.

Trumping a fleet of 40 Tasars in the 45+ age group, Martin said ‘Good speed, good height, a great regatta, really happy! It was my first dinghy regatta since I was about 19!’

Having spent a lot of time in the Farr 40 over recent years, Martin took up the challenge of the two-hander with gusto, dropping 5 kg in body weight and getting used to sailing a boat a lot flatter.
