Description
I am Maeve White, I am 16 and have been selected for the U21 NZ Teams Sailing Team
I have been a member of the Kerikeri High School open sailing team for two years, making the team in my first year with no previous sailing experience. Â The team then went on to win the 2016 nationals and placed second at the 2017 nationals in a very strong event. Since my first nationals, I have sailed with the same skipper, who has also been selected for the under 21 New Zealand Team. We will be sailing together for the Worlds as a very well raced combination.
My biggest strengths are the ability to pick up on things quickly and learning fast and I am of a competitive nature.
In the future, I hope to go on to compete in match racing and I plan to make the most of all the opportunities presented to me.
