CII NA Championship and NA YOG Qualifier - Sixteen nations are set to start racing in the waters of Grand Cayman on March 10th for the Byte CII North American Championship and for the four male and four female country qualifying positions in the upcoming Youth Olympic Games in Singapore in August.

ISAF Vice President Teo Ping Low from Singapore spent one of the pre-regatta training days at the Cayman Islands Sailing Centre, hosts of the event, meeting many of the young 15 and 16 year old sailors. He is seen below with the team from Cuba.
