LARRY HUNTINGDON (USA)|
| | Nomination |
Supporters of sailing
don’t come much
more enthusiastic than
this great American
Corinthian. Now aged 80, the 2015
Transatlantic marked the former New
York YC Commodore’s seventh such
race, finishing this year as winner of
Class 3 on his trusty Ker-designed
50-footer Snow Lion. As usual, having
raced to Europe Huntington made the
most of his ‘trip’ by competing in the
Rolex Fastnet and other major events
