49er World Championship

Having secured the Olympic berth in the 49er, Ian Barrows and his crew Hans Henken look to tune up in a series of events and training sessions before August, the first of which was the 49er World Championship in the Canary Islands last week. After 17 hard-fought races, Ian and Hans came away with 16th place in the fleet of 70. Results are here.

Bacardi Cup Invitational Regatta

The Bacardi Cup took place in Miami last weekend, featuring six of the nation’s most competitive one-design fleets.
