I continued my sport career with 470 olympic boat in 2007. I won the silver medal​in the National Junior ​Championship and the gold medal in the National Adult Championship - also the National Week . I spent three months with the trainer John Mooney between November 2007 and Februar 2008 in Melbourne, in Australia. ​

 

During this time I became so strong and put on so much weight, that I had to change to the Laser Olympic unipersonal class. With my outstanding results I qualified for the olympic representative team.

​In Pro Am division all top three boats missed just one event from the series. The battle between Alfredo Capodanno’s Marrakech Express ITA-636 and Robert Bakoćzy’s FGF Sailing Team HUN-209 got a solution with the final event in Medemblik where FGF Sailing Team knocked Marrakech Express out from the leading position being with the five points ahead in the final results. Third position in the Melges 24 European Sailing Series 2014 belongs to Oleg Dyvinets’ Marusia UKR-819. With the consistent sailing top three Pro Am teams were in the process ending respectively in fourth,  fifth and sixth place overall in the main fleet. The winner of the Pro Am division, Robert Bakóczy said after the final event “After our first season in the European Sailing Series we are convinced that it has a bright future ahead. The concept that every part of Europe has its own competition is good and all eventa are in available distance for any European country. We made a good decision when we made the choice to compete in this series, and we are really happy that we won the Pro Am Trophy. It was a great pleasure sailing in a fleet with these great sailors like Riccardo Simoneschi and Flavio Favini. I wish to thank my team members Domonkos Rozsnyay, Levente Takacsy, Bence Buza, Kristof Takacsy for this great season! Next year we will surely join this great series again, because it was really good fun this year!”

On the last day of the World Championship, the first 10 units could compete in the „Medal Race” for the leading positions. The gained points of this round were added to the already received ones, they counted double and were not negligible. Finalists had to concentrate intensely, since the final positions were absolutely open. It is favourable and astonishing that Róbert Bakóczy (HUN), who basically sails with Laser and Finn racing is just a by-pass for him, achieved 9th position and became the only Hungarian in the first 10.
 

The „Medal Race” could made it only for the third start, because the wind was quite still. At the start only 3 m/s gentle breeze blew softly. The Massler(GER) was an early starter, but then corrected, Vika (CZE) received a 720 degree punishment for banned pumping. Wind blew from the right throughout the race. Baldassari(ITA) and Róbert Bakóczy (HUN) sailed on the right side of the track, while the Brazil chose the left side. The wind continuously turned into SE. The Brazil could cross the Hungarian and the Italian boats and took the kreutz first. Second was the Italian and then the Hungarian followed by Vika (CZE) in the fourth place, who despite his punishment sailed in great speed. Thanks to this, by the end of the first tail-wind section he reached the first three and at the gate he even took Robert Bakóczy (HUN) over.
 

In the second round the wind became more and more SE, so the tactician Hungarian could take his third position back from Vika (CZE). The Brazil and the Italian sailed confidently in the first two positions and they finished the second round this way.

Róbert Bakóczy (HUN) gained the fantastic third place.
