Introducing Sophie Carroll - CAN 2025, Team Canada 🇨🇦 for the 2026 Optimist South American Championship in Punta del Este, Uruguay

Sophie is 13 years old and started sailing at the age of 6 with Chester Yacht Club. She now races representing the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron. This is Sophie’s third time as a member of the Canadian National Team and she is looking forward to seeing friends she’s met at other sailing events, meeting new friends, and exploring Punta del Este. “I’m also really excited to sail in a new place and experience a different part of the world.”

Good luck in Uruguay, Sophie 🙌

A little C*C flair for your keys or fridge — and a great way to support our young sailors!

These beautiful C*C magnets & keychains are hand-beaded in East Africa using glass beads and genuine Kenyan leather.

Maasai beading has a long history and is deeply ingrained in their culture, with skilled artisans known around the world for their beautiful beadwork.
