DAVE HOLLOM (GBR)|
| | Nomination |
Yes, we’re certainly a
little biased when it
comes to giving one of
our regular writers a bit
of a puff but... as the record books
show, some 67 International 14s lined
up for the 2015 worlds in Geelong of
which the stunning total of one boat
(sic) was drawn by our multiple model
yachting and gliding champion. And
that one boat, in the hands of Glenn
Truswell and Sam Pascoe, wrapped
up a tough series with a day to spare
|
| Why they won |
| ‘The first reach was nuts, with white sails we were doing crazy
speeds. Our boat was just mental, it just goes and goes’ – Glenn
Truswell (with Sam Pascoe above); ‘In the high-tech world of RC
yachting Dave has been outstanding in designing, building and
sailing. At the top of the game for 30 years he still ranks in the top
3 in the world – and his foil designs helped me to 8 world titles!’
– Graham Bantock; ‘I won the worlds with an A-Class designed by
Dave as part of his 12-Metre research... Thanks!’ – Derek Priestley. |
