It was a banner year for the sailing team in 2016 highlighted by a Spring Break trip to Ireland, winning the O’Day trophy, and once again qualifying for the Baker Trophy in Anacortes, WA. The coaching staff literally traveled a third of the way around the world with this team and at each stop they represented themselves and the Academy with pride and dignity.

Though only midway through the season, the Tabor Academy Sailing team has found a lot of success so far this year. This past weekend, we came away with the George O’Day Trophy for the first time in ten years. Our success all started with a strong foundation: an early season trip to Schull, Ireland, where we sailed against 15 other schools in an International Regatta. It was a great team-building trip, where we, the captains, were learning along with our teammates, thanks to our excellent hosts in Schull.
