LAKE MACQUARIE DUO WIN 29ER WORLD TITLE

Following in the footsteps of London gold medallists, Nathan Outteridge and Iain Jensen, Lake Macquarie now has another world-beating sailing duo.
Competing in the Netherlands, Tom Crockett and Harry Morton have won the 29er world crown, but the Aussies didn’t have it all their own way early in the finals.
Crockett and Morton started the last day of the event 16 points in front, before grabbing a second and a 13th to guarantee gold.
