Black Swan Racing Training for The Spring Cup in Sweden

by Keith Swinton

Black Swan Racing have just completed two days of training prior to our first European regatta The Spring Cup in Gothenburg, Sweden. On Thursday we sailed in the 5 man DS37 yachts which we will race during this weekends Spring Cup. Today we sailed the smaller Elliot 6m against some of Sweden's women match racers who are campaigning towards London 2010 in the match racing discipline.

Keith Swinton, helmsan: "It has been nice to get back out on the water and participate in some solid training before our first event of the year. The Spring Cup is an important event as it can qualify us for Match Cup Sweden later in the year. It has been a little difficult having some new crew on the team for this event but we feel positive now."

The Spring Cup begins Saturday and concludes on Sunday.

Black Swan Racing would like to thank our following supporters: South of Perth Yacht Club, Kerman Contracting, Abbotts PTY LTD Chartered Accountants, McNally Group PTY LTD, Musto Australia & Sweden.
