This young Hawaiian superstar is ready to take on the world!

Gavin Ball from Hawaii has one hell of a story of how he got into sailing, from an encounter with a shark at 8yrs old, to winning SailGP Inspire and now onto an F50 and Youth Americas Cup trials with America Magic, it has been an amazing journey.

Gavin takes us through the Hawaiian fleet and why so many young sailors are making an impact on the global racing scene. He also explains he was born to the water and went through 3-yrs of sailing 360+ days a year and sailed over 3,500 nautical miles on his WASZP since January. He is a real character and exemplifies the WASZP way of life!
