A novel 15–minute Youtube video that features interviews with competitors – including world champion Steve Goacher – at the Flying Fifteen National Championships gives an insight into the keelboat scene.
Filmed by Vincent Polding, who says that despite not being an avid sailor, he couldn’t resist the opportunity to film some of the top crews.
One question Polding says he forgot to ask during his time at the County Antrim Yacht Club, was why are they called Flying Fifteens?
Can anybody help him?
