Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron recently held their awards night and the very prestigious WA O'Hare Memorial Trophy for Junior Yachts Person of the Year was presented to a Windsurfer.

Congratulations Lara O'Brien. She also picked up the Vidgen Perpetual Trophy for best result at a National Regatta.
