I would like to thank the BYC Maritime Sciences and Seamanship Foundation for funding me to go to Santa Barbara to train with the West Side Opti Sailing Team. I trained with one of the top Opti coaches in the world, Manny Resano.
The training improved my downwind speed and how to work the boat over chop better upwind. I gained the respect of my fellow teammates and proved myself good enough where they have invited me to sail with them in Argentina this February.
Thank you very much for your support!
