Seahorse sailor of the month In association with
Seahorse sailor of the month competition December JANUARY NOMINEES
MUSTO
THOMAS BSCHER (GER)
As you’d expect, there are few gaps in the technical know-how of a man who was
once CEO of Bugatti Automobiles. So when Bscher purchased the first, unloved WallyCento Hamilton, over weight and under-clubbed, there was much interest in the plan… And the plan was quite successful; ‘big’ changes to Bscher’s renamed Open Season led to wins in 5 of the 7 races at the Maxi Worlds in Porto Cervo…
GERY TRENTESAUX (FRA) ‘He is the best’ – Patrice and Mimi Carpentier; ‘We too were OCS in Fastnet Class 3, but Géry took an hour to recross and we took two … chapeau!’ – Tom Hayhoe; ‘A great sailor and gentleman’ – Tony Lawson; ‘What a great offshore sailor’ – Bart Vroon; ‘He has won virtually every offshore race he’s competed in, certainly this year’ – Pierre Ghewy; ‘He must win, it will be the cherry on the top of one of the most brilliant offshore campaigns ever’ – Hervé Dereux; ‘Offshore he is such a consistent winner, respect!’ – Koen van Gils. Seahorse Sailor of the Month comes to you with Musto, Harken McLube and Dubarry. Please contact us at Seahorse for your prizes
WINNER
HUNTINGTON (USA) 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
