Matthew Gabriele has been named the Vikings Sailing Club's most promising young sailor for 2005.

The Hillhorst Award is given every year to sailors under 16 who show enthusiasm, commitment and sportsmanship - and something extra.

Apart from the VSC Hillhorst trophy, Gabriele, who comes from a seafaring family, placed second in the Edsons' races in a Laser 4.7, and third in the MMA Autumn Series in a Laser Radial. He already has his sights set on the 2006 Rolex Middle Sea Race.
