Bronze at 2015 ISAF Women’s Match Racing World Championship

11th Hour Racing Ambassadors Jamie Haines and Stephanie Roble of Epic Racing conquered the bronze at the 2015 ISAF Women’s Match Racing World Championship in Middelfart Denmark.  With Stephanie  at the helm and Jamie trimming, Epic Racing finished up 3rd out of 16 teams, with some really competitive racing.

Stephanie was quick to praise the work of her crew: “We were very disappointed not to make the final, but then recharged to get on the podium. We had great pre-starts and carried the momentum throughout our races, thanks to my awesome crew.”

With sustainability being one of Epic Racing’s top priorities, Jamie sent some encouraging feedback:  “The event is providing boxed water and there are more recycling bins then garbage bins. Women’s International Match Racing Series is doing a great job in minimizing their environmental footprint on and off the water.
