Passing the experience on to the next generation 🔥⛵️
Sailing on the SSL47 boats is not only about preparing for the next big competition, it’s also about giving young sailors the chance to experience bigger boats and learn from those with years of experience.
SSL Team South Africa is using its training camp in Grandson to try young sailors in different positions, teach them the SSL47 and show them just how demanding sailing a boat like this can be.
As the team Captain says, the younger sailors are loving the opportunity.
This is what makes the SSL concept so special, bringing generations of sailors together, sharing experience and giving the next generation the chance to learn on the biggest stage 🌎
