Profile:
I began sailing Optimists aged 8, then progressed through the RYA Junior and Youth system in Oppies, 420s and 29ers before sailing a 49er for 18 months or so. When I decided professional sailing wasn't for me I bought an RS800 and have raced it ever since. I also do lots of other sailing including RS200s, team racing and some yacht sailing. This year was my 6th Nationals, so it was nice to finally win, although a huge amount of credit needs to go to my new crew Fiona Hampshire!
Tips:
Communication! The more you talk as a pair the easier it gets. Bouncing ideas off each other is really useful! Whether it's about rig set-up, or tactics. It's especially important for boat-handling when it's windy.
