Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club has selected its first sailors from a provisional pool of 12 to join RHKYC Team Agiplast, the Club?s challenge for the Youth America?s Cup 2020-2021.
The four pictured sailors are also joined by Aymeric Gillard
Aymeric Gillard also has international regatta experience, winning the 29er Worlds in Canada. Gillard has experience in the Red Bull Foiling Generation, Moths and Waszps, and has designed his own foiling craft. He was also a member of the Hong Kong 29er sailing team for three years and received the Tom Larmour Award in 2012. Lucy Sutro, RHKYC?s Rear Commodore (Sailing), said: ?The physical assessment was tough and gave the candidates an indication of the levels of strength and fitness that will be required to handle the AC9F foiling monohull which they will be competing in. The RHKYC is proud and thrilled to have youth members of such a high calibre joining Team Agiplast.?
Training starts immediately with a physical training programme, with on-water training in Hong Kong planned to start later this month.
