Montgomery Estate Planning has proudly sponsored the Under 25 Trophy at Cowes Week 2023.
This event is one of the UK’s longest-running and most successful sporting gatherings.
Triplets triumph … again
The Montgomery Estate Planning Under 25 Trophy was awarded to the highest placed Under 25 Crew: Charlie, Harry and Tom White.
The triplets from Wootton, sailing in the Squib class, were particularly thrilled to have won again in ‘Kestrel’.
With great skill and determination against strong competition and weather conditions, the Isle of Wight-based triplets managed to retain their 2022 title, marking another first for the trophy winners.
Honouring youth achievements
Montgomery Estate Planning say they were also pleased to have been part of the presentation for the Cowes Week Youth Trophy.
This was presented to Christopher-Joel Frederick, a leading figure of the Greig City Academy’s Scaramouche Youth Sailing Project.
Cowes Week has always been popular for young competitors, providing them with an ideal opportunity to realise their talent and cultivate the future stars of sailing.
A platform for equal competition
Racing for the U25 Trophy offers an unparalleled platform for young sailors to compete on equal terms with sailors of all ages and abilities, from club to Olympic sailors.
Katy Baxter, Managing Director of Montgomery Estate Planning, who is now based on the Isle of Wight, has more than 30 years of experience running family business advisory firms.
Sailing towards a sustainable future
Katy spoke about the significance of the event, stating,
“I am keenly aware of how important our environment is and the need to preserve it carefully for future generations.”
She continued to reflect,
“Sailing is a great part of Island life and the Under 25 sailors represent the future of this exciting, healthy and eco-friendly sport.”
Emphasising Montgomery Estate Planning’s commitment, she added,
“We are delighted to have sponsored the U25 trophy, and recognise the amazing teamwork of all involved, including families and friends, who helped and supported these sailors over the finish line.”
