Kiwi Yachting Consultants has got behind young singlehanded sailor, Cory McLennan, outfitting his Mini Transat 6.50 with the safety gear required for the short handed sailing season ahead.

McLennan is the youngest person to have sailed across the Tasman Sea - a feat which he achieved when he was 19yrs old.

His first long race for McLennan and B&G Racing will be over ANZAC weekend with the Shorthanded Sailing Association of New Zealand ANZAC 250.
