Motion text
That this House congratulates the UK Sail GP team on winning the annual world championship in Abu Dhabi; notes that the sport involves 50 foot foiling catamarans racing around a short course close to land, so spectators can watch and enjoy the action; understands that the technology involved enables the boats to achieve almost 100km per hour powered just by wind; recognises the winning team of six included multi-Olympic medallist and Poole constituent Hannah Mills; and salutes the work she does to promote sailing opportunities for women and young people generally, especially around the local sailing clubs in the area.
