FAHAD AL HASNI (OMA)
| Nomination |
A regular member of
Sidney Gavignet’s crew
on Musandam-Oman
Sail, Al Hasni was one of
three Omani sailors onboard when the
blue MOD 70 set a new round Ireland
record and took line honours in this
year’s race of the same name. But
Oman Sail had trailed her American
rival Phaedo3 almost to the end, before
pouncing in the fast-fading breeze
with less than a mile left to go and
scraping home just a few metres ahead
