2019 Young 88 North Sails Canterbury Clinic

Published Sun 03 Nov 2019

A great couple of days out on  Lyttelton Harbour with 7 x local 88s and 4 owners from the Akaroa fleet on the water with North's gurus Matt Steven, Mathieu Guillaud and Tom Dodson. The team from Norths were focusing on boat and sail trim and crew work in manoeuvres. 

They were joined by Y88 Association measurer Chris Macindoe helping out with advice on set ups and compliance with class rules.

The Canterbury fleet were learning about sail trim, rigs and crew work. and in the words of local fleet captain Phil Foulter.. "Everyone has been gobbling it up"

They have been working so hard they had to stop and raft up for lunchtime refreshments in Diamond Harbour.

Big vote of thanks from those involved to North Sails and the Young 88 Association.
