Sunsail are pleased to announce their continued sponsorship of Pip Hare, for her 2013 Mini Transat campaign. Pip who placed 17th overall in the 2011 Mini Transat, is training to compete in one of the world’s toughest endurance races, sailing 3,800 miles from France to Guadeloupe in just over 4 weeks.

Simon Conder; Sunsail’s UK Head of Marketing said; “Sunsail Racing is delighted to continue our support of Pip and her entry into the challenging 2013 Mini Transat race. Pip is an accomplished offshore racer and this partnership is firmly in line with our ongoing commitment to support the future of sailing at every level.”

Pip Hare commented; 'Sunsail Racing provide a unique opportunity for non-boat owners to get out and experience the thrill of Racing in their matched fleet of Sunsail F40s. It is a vital entry point to bring people into the sport and increase its popularity and appeal.

Sunsail Racing’s continued support of international level sailing campaigns show their commitment to the development of sailing and I am delighted to again sign with them as a sponsor for my 2013 Mini Transat campaign. I hope their belief in me will encourage other sponsors to step up and join my team.'
