Alex is in the process of moving from up from his Topper to the ILCA 4. After a brilliant year on the water winning the Topper Worlds this year. He has a busy schedule of ILCA events this year and we look forward to working with him to find out what unique parts and systems he is using on his boat.
Let's find out some more info on how and where he started sailing.
6 Years Old
HIs first boat was a AB… a what I hear you ask? It’s a 2-person boat that is super old. They are locally made and only exist at Parkstone Yacht club. I came 2nd in the AB World Championships, we didn’t have to travel far 🤣
Parkstone Yacht Club
Winning the 2023 Topper World Championships in Cork, Ireland. I went over the finish line grabbed the GB flag and did a front flip off my boat, I was elated.
Riva del Garda, Italy, bring on the wind! I went there in 2022 and won silver fleet. It can be 5 knots one minute then 30 the next, awesome sailing.
Become an Olympian at 15! Only joking, my goal is to focus, train hard, coach younger kids and qualify for the gold fleet at my first ILCA 4 Worlds. But most of all, keep having fun sailing 😃
At school, every day. If my lessons could all be replaced by sailing, I’d be a very happy teenager. But if this wasn’t possible, then somewhere hot.
Nearly 40 years on from my first "Laser" I have just taken delivery of my second - a Devoti Ilca 7. Buying this new ILCA has been a 5 star experience, and dealing with Andrew, Jason and Steve at Sailing Chandlery have all been great - candid advice, all the help and assistance I could have wished for. And to cap it all Steve delivered the new Devoti to my home address - 5 hours away, and up in the hills, not easy to get to - and what's more Steve then stayed to help me sort out the rigging - all very different from what I remember. When I last sailed a Laser you had to lean on the boom to put on more kicker. I'm very happy to give the team at Sailing Chandlery a fulsome recommendation.
quick and easy to deal with prompt delivery on order will use again
We ordered a 100m reel of sheet rope for our sailing club's training fleet of Toppers and Fevas. It runs through the blocks very easily and is great to hold. The children on the courses love it!
Great little piece of kit, use it for giving me an idea of wind direction in the marina on my narrowboat!!
Great harness, really comfortable, looks to be good quality and well made.
Great service from Sailing Chandlery.
Delivery was super quick after bank holiday, and product is just as described. Super convenient pockets inside a comfy backpack kitbag so great and practical for walking to/from dinghy parks
Just a small item, a bung! The super quick delivery got me back on the water. Thank you.
Good rope for low load jobs - easy to splice, smooth and flexible.
Perfectly layed out numbers
WIP have really pulled out all the stops on this impact vest to suit all forms of hi-performance watersports. Feels great on, good snug fit - no restrictions to movement and doesn't impact on trapezing like a lot of buoyancy aids. A very well made, high quality vest that has everything you need to keep you safe on the water.
Purchased for my old Albacore sailing dinghy. This is a well made quality cover with straps and clips that look like they’ll last many years. I no longer have to bail out the boat before sailing!
Found the staff at Sailing Chandlery most helpful to a no-yachtsman with flags to fly to cheer the day.
It may seem strange but my husband purchased this item as he was making me some wooden bunting for our outside space. The range of colours was fab and the rope is ideal for our needs.
