Interview with British Sailing Team's Hannah Snellgrove

by South Coast Journalism 15 Mar 2015 07:14 UTC 15 March 2015

Lymington based British Sailing Team Laser Radial sailor Hannah Snellgrove recently spoke with South Coast Journalism about a number of subjects ranging from the Olympics to the Salterns Sailing Club.

Snellgrove, who was speaking a month after racing at the 2015 ISAF Miami World Cup, also discussed what her plans are for the remainder of the year, including the next World Cup in Hyeres, France.

She also spoke about why her results tailed off after a good start in Miami before discussing her hopes to one day race at an Olympic Games.

Snellgrove praised the Salterns Sailing Club where she learned how to sail and said that she "hopes it goes on forever" because it makes a difference to many people.
