My introduction to water sports was through coastal sailing in yachts around the Solent and Mediterranean, eventually leading to a RYA Coastal Skipper qualification. However, increasing work commitments in 2008 encouraged me to seek out sailing opportunities closer to home, leading to enrolment on a RYA Level 2 dinghy course at SHSC. I then immediately joined the very competitive but friendly SHSC Laser fleet where I can still be found sailing beyond my abilities most weekends. I joined the committee in 2010 and assist with maintenance of club hire equipment.
