Congratulations to both Jack Trigger and James OLeary, both from London, who are the winners of our VIP Experience with the Bullitt GC32 Racing Tour at the Cowes Cup on 25th June and £1,000 worth of Helly Hansen kit.

Jack sent in this photo from inside the hatch of a yacht with this as his motivation: "Relentless. Even when you can escape the water, you can't escape the brutality of ocean racing. Pushing yourself to the limit when you have no option to step off or back out, a unique kind of freedom."

We loved the photo and his description of the sport we love!

James OLeary sent in this photo of his Tornado during the Whitstable Forts Race a few years ago. His quote was: "My brother and I were sailing our Tornado called Elvis. The sun was setting on a glorious days racing and we were steaming home on one hull with the kite up. Best day's sailing ever!!"
