Great night at the Australian Sailing Awards for McCrae. Well done to Dee Mason who made for a very entertaining MC, Mark Bulka for again winning Male Sailor of the Year, Glenn Ashby for presenting a bunch of awards and Scott Watson who took part in the judging. Casey Imeneo missed out on Female Sailor of the Year, but will have some consolation with a 3rd place in one of today's heat's at the ILCA6 Worlds in Ireland. Poppy Yates was also a member of the Toorak College Teams Racing winners of the Krystal Weir Perpetual Trophy. Congrats to all award nominees and winners - thank you for keeping sailing alive and thriving!

We’re thrilled to see one of our own, Dee Mason, taking on the role of MC at the 2026 Victorian Sailing Awards at Sandringham Yacht Club! ⛵️✨

Dee has been a much-loved member of McCrae Yacht Club since she was a child, so it’s wonderful to see her bringing her talents to such a special occasion.

A fantastic master of ceremonies with a great sense of humour and plenty of wit, Dee knows how to keep an audience engaged.

We’re looking forward to hearing Dee bring her warmth and wonderful personality to the Victorian sailing awards.

Congratulations Dee - we’ll be cheering you on!

Congratulations to Casey Imeneo for again being selected as a finalist for Victorian Female Sailor of the Year! A past winner and often at the front of the Australian women's fleet, Casey is also a fantastic support and guide to the youth in our aspiring high performance squad, alongside our Coach (and other finalist) Mark Bulka. They (and we) think the world of you Casey!

PS Well done to the fantastic Laura Harding too!

PPS Glancing through all the finalists across the various categories of awards it's pretty clear the Mornington Peninsula is a truly awesome place to become a great sailor!

Massive congratulations to Dee Mason, who won silver at the Gay Games in Valencia! 🥈🏳️‍🌈😃🎉🙌 Love your work Dee!

Dee, sailing on the Team UK boat 'Jolene' was pipped by the French in the sudden death finals having dropped a '1st' to get there. Clearly sailing very well. Fingers crossed we see an full Australian team next time for what is an excellent regatta according to Dee.
