Classic and High Performance Yacht Racing

Played a crucial role in the repair of a water ballast system on an 80ft racing yacht. Another crew member and I dissembled and un-seized a jet drive impeller as well as calibrated the pneumatic system responsible for water intake management. This was an emergency repair one day prior to Ida Lewis distance race in Rhode Island which allowed our team to complete race. The most recent regatta I have completed was the 2024 Newport to Bermuda distance race where I was a cornerstone of the crew.
