Whilst at the show, Ian Pinnell and Lily Xu, two great sailors caught up with each other to discuss their new books. The pair chatted about Lily's training towards the Olympics Games in Rio and Lilly's two-year brake. Lily has been busy in her time off and was at the show signing her newly published book "Golden Lily" on the Fernhurst stand. Celebrating with splash of bubbles the medalists book is a fascinating autobiography account from Asia's first ever dinghy sailing gold medallist.
