About Me
I am a 17 year old who has spent his life sailing out of Guernsey. I’ve been in boats since I was 6 years old, and racing since 2018.
Working my way from club racing to national and international regattas, I’ve sailed the Optimist, RS Feva, and ILCA 4 and 6.
Whilst I just missed out on selection for the 2023 Island Games, I was part of the volunteer team, and helped drive the jury rib. I hope to use this valuable experience in these Island Games.
