Congratulations to Brett and Alice Linton (Worser Bay, Wellington) who won the 2006 Sunburst Nationals at Mercury Bay at Easter.At 8 years old, Alice must be one of the youngest ever national title holders in any class.
This is Brett's third title and is also the third national title for Rythymandswing (1530) which was built by Tim Willets.
