Welcome Miles!
David McKelvey
We are really excited to welcome Miles Davey to the VA12SC. Miles is going to be taking over the Head Coach position at the club, assuming Adele’s role at the start of the new year.
Miles brings a wealth of coaching and competitive sailing experience to the club.
He started sailing at Lane Cove in Sabots as a young boy, and competed at VA12SC regularly. Learning the basics, and loving the sport of sailing, he moved into 29ers, where they won 2 National titles. He has also sailed in two youth worlds, finishing in 3rd place in Houston, Texas.
He recently started sailing the Olympic 49er class, coming 13th at the world championships in Oman in 2021, and is aiming to qualify for the Olympics in 2024.
He also sails 18ft skiffs, alongside a large group of ex VA12SC sailors.
So make sure you say hi when you see him at the club, and welcome him to the 12 footers!
