ROB GREENHALGH (GBR)|
| | Nomination |
No sooner do we start
to compile a list of
some of Rob’s bigger
achievements, in skiffs,
foilers and most of the big ocean
races, than he goes and upsets our
tidy sheet of paper by banging in
another one, winning the Amlin
Moth invitational regatta in Bermuda
for the second year in a row. Closer
to home and this nomination is really
in recognition of the big part he has
played in reviving Grand Prix racing
in northern Europe with the Fast40+
|
| Why they won |
| December 2016, just a Sydney Hobart win and a few thousand
dollars for topping the fleet at the Bermuda Mothfest. Diverse but
a bit average… ‘I’d call that a good month’ – Brian Thompson;
‘Mighty’ – Adam May; ‘He wins in Foxers too’ – Alistair Skinner;
‘He just cannot stop winning… has any modern sailor won in so
many very different classes…worth checking?’ – Timo Malinen;
‘No wonder he’s always very well employed!!!’ – Holger Lehning.
It needs adding that Amac ran Rob very close in this month’s vote. |
