The Josephian spirit remains prevalent among team members , coach , teachers and parents . Our sincere thanks to the parents of our sailors , without whose support and encouragement our sailing team would perhaps not have been able to achieve what we managed this year . Thanks also to Coach Fendi , teachers , Mr Alfred Nathan , Mrs Nicole Khoo and Ms Josephine Khoo for their guidance .
