why now I am 60 are races like this happening,when I was younger and in a better health position to take part the races just weren’t happening.I just single handed up and down the East Coast of Oz in my 24footer.I followed the last race every day from start to finish.With all the corporate money in Japan why is funding so hard to come by.I really hope I am around to see the next one start AND finish- Stephen

Kirsty, Thank you for reading the article and taking time to make comment. The more the merrier really. Many se yacht racing as a sport unavailable to themselves. I simply wish to say that EVERYBODY is welcome.

I am more than happy to act as a conduit for anybody wanting to get into sailing or yacht racing in Japan.

Hi Mark!

I really was surprised to hear your welcoming comments about getting more foreigners involved as in the White Sail Point Race. If I were nearer I would have loved to have come down and got involved. Ive been over here for nearly ten years and sailing remains one of my ambitions I still havent touched. I think had I still been in the UK I’d have got round to it by now! Anyway, Im up in Yamagata ken and despite having no shortage of coast, sailing doesnt really happen up here from what Ive seen.
However Im glad to have read your very positive reports and found some evidence that Japan does get visiting sailors!

Ever eager to sail,
Kirsty
