Awards Ceremony and Winners Photos 
With 140 competitors, 19 Nations, 4 Classes, an included Youth Worlds, plus Male, Female, Junior, Youth, Master, Grand Master, Great Grand Master and special awards the closing Grand Awards Ceremony was always going to be a huge one!
Overall we awarded 15 World Titles as listed in the NoR with 49Medals. 67 prizes were awarded which were limited to 1 main prize each for multiple winners.
Thanks to Rooster for their support with an awesome prize haul of fantastic goodies and this was backed up with support from RS Sailing and Selden allowing a mid-week special awards too at the Regatta Dinner.
The Race Committee did a great job to get in 12 good races of the 14 scheduled. The Jury kept a watchful eye and helped to keep our racing fair and fun.
RS Sailing provided a new record of 41 charter RS Aeros enabling distant travellers to compete and their team of Beth and Andy did a great job on site supporting.
A World Championship of this size is a huge undertaking for the small club of LNI Sulcis, a very successful youth training base situated in their hidden away paradise on Sant'Antioco. They stepped up to the challenge and delivered a memorably fantastic World Championship. Special thanks to Tiziana, Tore, Michele, Toto, Matteo, Alex, Filippo(x2), Francesca, Marco(s), Guido and everyone else who helped...!
Thanks to awards ceremony assistants Katie and Amanda and Italian RS Aero President Guido Sirolli for the presenting.
