[Written by Stephen Wright]
Adriana Penruddocke has earned Bermuda a sailing berth at the Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile, next year.
Penruddocke, competing in the ILCA 6 Radial Class, finished third at the ILCA North American Championships in the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour in Ontario, Kingston.
She also finished as the second-best women’s sailor at the five-day event, finishing yesterday.
Penruddocke wrote on Instagram: “Such a great week in Canada not only a [bronze] overall, [silver] female but qualified Bermuda a spot for the Pan Am Games!”
The 21-year-old represented Bermuda at the Junior Pan American Games in Cali, Colombia, in December last year.
She finished the six-race series fourth, just five points outside the podium, among the 14-strong fleet.
The Pan American Games will run from October 20 to November 5 next year.
