SailGP 101 Talk Review

On Friday night HISC shared the evening with Tom from SailGP and Paul Campbell-James from Team Canada for an insight into the SailGP season so far.  With 12 one-design foiling F50 catamarans racing together in each race, and 14 venues around the globe, SailGP makes for very exciting and competitive sailing.  Both worked as a great double act, delivering highlights from the on & offshore action for over an hour.   Around 120 members and guests enjoyed a very informative talk and were mesmerised by technical detail & props including a development T-foil, steering wheel with all its control twist grips and buttons & D-section from the wing.

Some comments from members: 'The talk was very interesting and the food was great!', 'The talk was excellent', 'Very engaging and a great evening all round!' 

SailGP are looking forward to seeing as many of us as possible in Portsmouth on 19th & 20th July.  See you all there!

Let’s hope for another chat with them both at the end of 2025 for a SailGP season roundup.
