YOUTH ACADEMY

Here is my challenge to Singapore Businesses and hopefully my contribution to the advancement of Singapore Big Boat Yachting.

We will as of today start the Big Boat Racing Academy, where my senior team members and I wish to pass on any knowledge we have to the next generation.

The Big Boat Racing Academy will rely on sponsorship for its income and will work on developing the following skills, with those chosen to participate:

• Seamanship
• Understanding the operation of a Super Maxi
• From a sailing and manoeuvring point of view
• From a technical point of view
• How to prepare a large vessel for a race
• How to avoid break downs
• How to repair the vessel at sea to stay in a competition
• The essence of working in a large team

We invite Singapore yacht clubs as well as national coaches to work with us to offer their talented youth a fair go at sailing and understanding the key facets of Big Boat Racing.

We invite young (18-25) top level yachts-men and -women with a proven track record in competitive dinghy and small boat classes to send their CV with references for our consideration.

Please send correspondence to:

ludde@bigboatracing.com

I very much look forward to sailing with the upcoming talent of Singapore yachting.

Regards,

Ludde Ingvall
