Ben and Tom have been sailing competitively for the last 3 years in the RS Tera and more recently the RS Feva. With great results in the Tera and Feva fleets.
Let's find out some more info on how and where Rebecca started sailing.
I started sailing when I was 7 with my Dad in a Miracle.
I learnt on my own in a little plastic Oppie like most people do and the first boat that was mine was a super fast RS Tera Sport, called The Minion and I loved it.
I ended up sailing it in the Tera World Championships in Sweden back in 2019.
I ended up sailing it in the Tera World Championships in Sweden back in 2019. It has many competitive youth sailors and is a very difficult place to sail as it is extremely tidal.
I think that my greatest achievement so far was 1st girl in the Tera Pros at the Nationals in 2021, but I am also proud of making the Gold fleet in the RS Feva World Championships this year.
My favourite venue is WPNSA because it's inspiring being able to sail at the same place as the Olympic sailors.
My main goal for 2023 is the RS Feva World Championships in Italy. With my crew, Tom, we'd love to finish as the top mixed pair.
My ultimate sailing venue would be with the 18ft skiffs in Sydney Harbour!
Let's find out some more info on how and where Tom started sailing.
I started sailing in 2020 when I was 13.
The first boat I sailed was an RS Tera Pro.
I sail from Port Dinorwic Sailing Club, which is located on the Menai Straits. It is a challenging and rewarding place to sail, as it has a lot of tide and a great youth fleet.
My biggest achievement would be coming 26th in the 2022 RS Tera World Championship. I am proud to have progressed quickly in this sport, reaching the gold fleet in the RS Feva 2022 World Championships within two years of stepping into a boat.
Weymouth is my favourite venue so far. When I sailed there during the RS Games in 2022, there were a lot of other boats to watch and the scenery was spectacular.
My main goal for 2023 is to finish as the first mixed pair in the RS Feva 2023 Word Championship in Italy, with Rebecca.
I would most like to sail in San Francisco underneath the Golden Gate Bridge.
I rang to request some advice on replacement parts for my dinghy and was very impressed with the excellent advice and efficient delivery of the required parts. Many thanks
Great product, safely packaged, delivered on time, at a competitive price. One more thing - the person on the end of the phone is an actual person, informative, helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant. What more could you ask for.
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
It was time for me to upgrade to a newer Ilca and it was recommended that I get a Devoti. The price was competitive and the service from Andrew and his team was fantastic. I received lots of communication and the boat was delivered to me within 2 weeks. It is really great that Sailing Chandlery take the time to set up the rigging so that you can get straight on the water. I am very pleased with my new boat and am loving sailing it. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Ordered a dyneema RSAero halyard on the Thursday. It arrived by mid day on the Friday and was used on the Saturday. Excellent product and service. Thank you
Cover arrived after three days and is well made and completely covers the boat boom up . The straps and clips all work fine. Good product.
My local chandlery were unable to supply a white inspection hatch and so it was amatter of looking online. Sailing Chandlery had the cover I needed in stock at a good price and delivery. I had never used them before but the service I received was excellent with the delivery on time and the hatch is now fitted.
I will definitely return, especially with the discounts on offer. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Always happy with my orders from Sailing Chandlery. They are quick to post and very helpful when I have had a question.
Jason delivered the boat on time at Hayling Island Sailing Club. The boat was new and all the spars were in perfect condition. Jason came to pick up the boat and return the deposit which I gave at the time of the delivery. Every interaction with Andrew and Jason were handled very professionally. I will recommend to any sailor Sailing Chandlery in the future. I really appreciated how easy it was to charter this boat. Thank you very much. Jacques Kerrest
Prompt delivery, with helpful updates and time slot spot on. Perfect new sail at a great price and the number fixing service is well worth it. It even won its first race! Thank you.
I needed GBR letters for the ILCA Europeans and they arrived by the next post.
I made a mistake on my order and it was put right at zero cost to me ! Amazing !
I’ll certainly be back
Product exactly what I wanted
Excellent service and prompt delivery.
Had the boom and mast in stock. Order processed quickly, great service and local so could pick them up. Friendly and helpful staff as always. Thank you
Delivered on time after chatting by phone to a very helpful person at Sailing chandlery. Absolutely no complaint with this Company and will continue to use them for my sailing needs.
