WASZP Swarm Podcast Episode 18: The build up to Weymouth 2025 WASZP Games begins

by WASZP Class 10 Sep 2024 11:22 PDT

Episode 18 of The Swarm Podcast, we feature two stalwarts of the WASZP UK class, who play equally important but very different roles in the success of the WASZP UK Class.

Duncan Hepplewhite has been the UK distributor since 2017 and was instrumental in establishing the class and association in the early days in the UK.

While, Sam Whaley has just claimed his third WASZP UK National Championship in 4-years and is the current class president. The success of the WASZP UK Class is there for all to see: 80 boats for the most recent National Championships and an aim of 250+ for the International WASZP Games in Weymouth in 2025!
