The first Elliott 6m boats to South America have arrived at Veleiros do Sul in Brazil. Purchased as a collaboration between the Brazilian Sailing Federation and the Veleiros Do Sul Yacht Club the six boats will be used for a number of events and for the Brazilian Women's Match racing team.

The South American entry for Women's match racing at the Nations Cup Grand Final will be decided at the qualifying series held in the new boats in Brazil in March. Clinics will be run using the fleet for a number of other South American nations.
