The elite of the sailing world will go head-to-head tomorrow in Nassau, Bahamas for the much anticipated Star Sailors League(SSL) Finals.
The first four days of racing act as qualification rounds for the 23 crews, with the competition going up a notch on Saturday for the knockout stages. These single races decide who survives, with the first warning signal for the Quarterfinals at 11:00am. Later that day, the Final will see the last four teams compete, with the first to finish claiming the $200,000 prize.
Saying this is an exciting line up would be an understatement. A selection of big name sailors make up each team, including 5.5 MetreWorld Champion and North Sails Expert Christoph Burger, Two-time Olympic Starmedallist and Beijing 2008 champion Iain Percy, and Volvo Ocean Race winner and America’s Cup veteran Paul Cayard.
