As a result of his Lockdown Interview, it inspired Ben Hall into thinking further on his 'A' Cat life. He shares those interesting thoughts and memories with us.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE A CAT?
For our next Lockdown chat, we now move over the pond to the USA and to the World Sailing legend and veteren 'A' cat ace Ben Hall.
INTRO
Here we now have the self-effacing 2017 Worlds organiser and one of the main driving forces behind the POL 'A' cat sailing scene, the always smiling, unless he's puffing - Jacek Noetzel.
Introduction
Next to hand in his homework is the World Open Vice Champion, the larconic Kiwi Dave Shaw.
Intro
My first sail was on a Hobie 14 with Alan, a friend of my Dad’s. I was 14 and just loved the speed and freedom.
One of the joys of this class is that we can have a huge age range within our National Associations. We all have our Association beloved Grandfathers, so our next interviewee is an honorary AUS Association life member, the 80 year old 'A' Cat veteran Horst Kopp.
Intro
Continuing our series is Tymo Bendyk, the POL ace and Olympic Nacra 17 campaigner, fresh from his victory in the first regatta since the lockdown starts to ease.
Intro
When and why did you first start sailing and in what?
