TONY LANGLEY (GBR)|
| | Nomination |
They say persistence is usually rewarded; well, British TP52 skipper Tony Langley has certainly been persistent. A supporter of the TP52 Super
Series going right back to the days of the Med Cup, Langley maintains a stock of 52s on two continents to avoid wasting time with all that shipping bother. With a change of boat this year and a re-energised team Langley’s Gladiators have pretty much swept all before them on the TP circuit, also cleaning up very enjoyably at Cowes Week
