Seahorsesailor of the month JUNE
In association with
TAYLOR CANFIELD (ISV)
Before this year only three sailors had won four Congressional Cups in Long Beach
(and the blinding crimson blazer that accompanies it) – Rod Davis, Peter Holmberg and Gavin Brady… and they went on to do OK. Now there’s a fourth name on the list after Canfield saw off Terry Hutchinson’s American Magic Cup squad 3-1 in the final of this year’s event. Any America’s Cup teams looking to boost the match race talent… we’ll put you in touch
PAUL GOODISON (GBR)
MAY WINNER STEVE BENJAMIN (USA)
If you want to win this thing get on the Yale sailing team, those guys can vote… ‘Of course I’m biased, he’s my young brother’ – Park Benjamin III; ‘A lot of great sailors were given their first break by Benj over the years, as was I’ – Matt Cornwell; ‘One of the nicest guys out there and a huge supporter of young sailors’ – Luiz Kahl; ‘An incredibly effective champion for countless initiatives that have made our sport stronger’ – Robert Hopkins; ‘He’s also always helping us with our inner city programme’ – Robert Burke. Seahorse Sailor of the Month comes to you with Henri Lloyd, Harken McLube and Dubarry. Please ping us that emailMr Benj…
Not being in the Artemis race crew last year must have lit some kind of a fire under the 2008 Laser
gold medallist, who has won his third straight Moth world title (Moth, foiling monohull, AC75, just saying – ed). Runner-up this year was Luna Rossa tactician Francesco Bruni while last year on Lake Garda Goody topped what felt like half the Cup sailors from Bermuda. In that one it went Goodison, Burling, Jensen and Slingsby. Enough for you?
HENRI LLOYD The Henri Lloyd Freedom Jacket has been
developed to be the ultimate in cruising apparel. The jacket offers serious offshore protection, plus comfort, new features
and the durability the serious cruising sailor demands
HARKEN
Harken’s Carbo OneTouch handle locks and unlocks one-handed to gain boat lengths in every tack. It’s customisable for boat or event logos… and it weighs just 590g!
DUBARRY

featuring integrated gaiter and GORE-TEX® Duratherm insulation for extra warmth

BACK STAGE PASS
At The Front…sometimes you find it inside a container with an in-box full of work orders and the restart just days away.
Harken is deep inside this race. In the refits. In the stopovers. Under the winch drums. On this lap of the planet where boats can finish a three-week leg overlapped, no detail will be overlooked. Follow along as the Harken Tech Team burns the midnight (pawl) oil. Visit
