ROD DAVIS (NZL)|
| | Nomination |
‘I’m over the moon…’
not surprising after the
Olympic gold medallist
super-coach won the
Masters division at the
OK Worlds –much more impressively
finishing ninth overall in the 110-boat
open fleet. Putting it out there like that
is not something every former Cup
sailor chooses to do – one or two have
come unstuck in the not so distant past.
Rod was also happy to be able to follow
his own methods as recorded in these
pages and see for himself that it works!
