Sanka qualified during the Wesmex regatta to represent Mexico in the 2022 Allianz Youth World Championship in The Hague, Netherlands which was held from July 8-15. This championship was...

It was a tough week, but super fun. The wind was like nothing we've had for a few years. Usually it's a single sided all-to-the-right course, but nope, the right wasn't paying as it usually does! The first three days were a bit overwhelming, when sailing with all those...

Here we are, back to the hot and humid Mexico... I really can't say I'll miss sailing in cold water. I very much prefer sailing in the tropics... It's been an awesome week, and Sanka and I learnt a lot in these four days of racing. First of all, we'd...

We're only one day away from starting the races! The wind hasn't died (yet), and the cold has increased. But we almost don't feel it anymore, so I think we've started to acclimate a bit. Yesterday we were invited to spend the morning sailing on a trimaran, Kokomo. The owner,...

First day on the water! I'm sure you recognize one of San Francisco's most famous architecture. We were out around 11:30 A.M., taking a first contact with San Francisco's cold water. I'm not kidding, I had to put on my hydrophobic lycra AND a windbreaker. And I still had my...

All right, so we're one day away from flying! Our room is starting to look even more unorganized, but trust me, there's some order in the chaos :grinning: We received our custom caps and lycras, and I have to say, they look much better than I thought: We were able...
