MATIAS CAPIZZANO (ARG)
| Nomination |
One the greatest of the many
great photographers who we
are privileged to work with
at Seahorse, what is less well
known is the enormous
amount that Matias does to support sailing
in South America, youth sailing especially,
and most of all the Optimist class, of which
his native country produces more than its
fair share of champions… along with all the
Optimist coaches who are flown around
the world non-stop by grateful parents. Do
visit his online gallery. It’s a nice ‘reminder’

Why they won |
Massive vote!!! ‘It is an honour
and I am thankful for having
been nominated for my work,
but I don’t have any chance
with a person who did 3 Volvo
races. Father of two Optimist
girls, I vote for you, Abby!’ Oops!
‘His fantastic shots, especially of
junior events, have inspired and
encouraged many young sailors
to persist with our sport. He
makes even Optimist sailing
look super!’ – Evert Meyer; ‘He
supports sailing so much… we
all love him!!!’ – Janet Coburn. |
