The Sail for Gold Ball was held on Thursday 3rd June 2004, at the Hilton Hotel, Park Lane, in the presence of HRH Princess Anne. Dave Graham and Sally-Ann Johnson from Laser were invited to attend by Dinghy Sailing Magazine who hosted a table in the Grand Ballroom.
The evening included an introduction to all the sailors in the various disciplines - those representing Great Britain at the Olympic and Para-Olympic Games in Greece in August.
A champagne reception and sumptuous dinner was followed by an Auction, compared by Davina McCall and Nicholas Bonham (Deputy Chairman of Bonham's Auctioneers), which raised £100,000 for the Sail for Gold Charity which supports the Olympic and Para-Olympic Sailors in their preparations for the Games.
Laser donated for Auction, the Laser which Paul Goodison will sail at the Olympics - this lot raised a magnificent £9,000, with a generous bid from Mr. Charles Dunstone.
