Charlie Pitcher (GBR)|
| | Nomination |
Not only do we have two Masters this month but we also have two Brits and no apologies for that (trying to steer you away from the horrors of Auckland). Years after he moved away from the offshore racing scene, in which he not only played a big part but also brought endless humour to those (of us – ed) lucky enough to sail with him, Pitcher re-emerges as an Atlantic oarsman. 400 miles in front, now that’s a win…
