Restart sailing show #48 - International Canoe

by Jon Emmett 10 Jul 2022 08:46 PDT

The Restart sailing shows started in 2020 when the pandemic first hit, with the aim of restarting sailing in a safe way.

In the latest show, filmed live from Plymouth we talk about:

  • Covid numbers rising but business as usual due to vaccination and natural immunity meaning few negative outcomes - most excess deaths now not directly linked to Covid.
  • Guest star: Steve Clarke
    International Canoe - the fastest non-foiling single hander!
  • Coaching top tips: Sailing by the lee

In the next show (#49) we talk to former RYA Performance Director Ian Walker live from Cowes week about the future of sailing and his new role for North Sails.
