Speaking of O’pen Skiff sailors from Hawaii, Pearl Lattanzi the Women’s World Champion in the 2025 Waszp Games is among three nominees for the Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year. Pearl hails from Kaneohe Yacht Club sailing O’pen Skiffs at a young age and now coaches at Waikiki Yacht Club. Many O’pen Skiff sailors gravitate towards foiling as they get older because of the similarities between the sports.
Learn more about Pearl and her acheivements in the links in our bio.
