Seahorse Sailor of the Month

JUNE'S NOMINEES
	MARIE TABARLY (FRA) Other teams had setbacks, none more so than Italy’s Translated 9, the team frequently leading in IRC but twice succumbing to failures that caused unsustainable ‘ingress of water’, also known as sinking. Marie Tabarly has worked so hard for this, her campaign run completely in the image of her father, never taking the easy option, racing a huge, heavy 50-year-old rolly-polly Maxi, recruiting and patiently training up a new young crew and then winning the damn thing. Marvellous!
	VITA HEATHCOTE (GBR) The mixed-gender 470 has been a revelation, bringing forward a new generation of talent, some helming, some on the wire, and giving a new lease of life to a great dinghy – previously for ‘smaller’ people – which has now found its perfect role. Vita Heathcote rose through Optimists, 420s, 470s… before grabbing the chance to helm with the vastly experienced Chris Grube crewing and then just running with it. Second in the worlds in an Olympic year… and first woman helm. Outstanding!
