On 15 and 16 March, some Dragons and HHYC Sailors—
Zoe and Timothée for the French International School (FIS)
in Qba/Pico, Antonio Franco and Hannah Jebsen for King
George V (KGV) in Feva, Ian for KGV Pico and Pei Yip for
Renaissance College—entered the 2014 Inter-School Regatta
organised by the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club in Middle
Island. The Interschool Regatta is a team racing event with 180
students from 20 schools competing in 116 races. Each team
(comprising three boats) competed against a team of three
identical boats from another school.
3月15和16日，部份Dragons隊員和白沙灣遊艇會選手，包括
就讀法國國際學校的Zoe和 Timothée、就讀英皇佐治五世學
校的Antonio Franco、 Hannah Jebsen、Ian，以及就讀啟
新書院的Pei Yip，參加在熨波洲舉行的2014香港遊艇會校際
帆船賽。
A few days before, the FIS sailing team trained on 11 March in
impressive climatic conditions (15 – 20 knots of wind). It was a
tough and ‘fun’experience for Timothée and Zoe.
在比賽前數天，法國國際學校的隊伍在風勢較強的情況下（15
– 20風節）進行訓練，對 Timothée和Zoe來說，這是個又艱辛
又有趣的經驗。
是次校際帆船賽，賽會安排了116場爭先賽，共有180名學生參
加，他們代表20間不同的學校出賽，賽事非常激烈。每隊均派
出三艘船艇出賽與另一間學校的選手對決，於爭先賽獲得最高分
數的隊伍會獲得最後勝利 。
