No doubt Simon Barwood will be taking a well earned rest after competing in 4 consecutive regattas. It all started with the National 125's, then the Contender Nationals and Worlds, and to finish off, he competed in the Mirror State Championships held at Maylands Yacht Club over the weekend with his son, Tyson.
Congratulations to Simon & Tyson for finishing in 2nd place. A tremendous result. 🥈
