Athena Pathway at the Youth Sailing Zone on Cowes Parade

Today’s guest at North Sails Cowes Week (Tuesday) for Q&As at the Youth Squad Zone is Kuba Staite. Kuba is part of the Athena Pathway Youth Squad. He will talk about his development journey and how he was selected to sail with Sir Ben Ainslie at North Sails Cowes Week. You will also have a chance to meet new GB1 team member and helm Dylan Fletcher.  The Athena Pathway fast-tracks Britain's next generation of elite sailors by providing unrivalled opportunities to compete alongside world-class athletes.

You’ll find the Youth Squad Zone on the Parade at Cowes. Don’t miss out! Starts 4.30pm.

Before that, at the GB1 America’s Cup Fanzone at Cowes Yacht Haven today, you’ll have another chance to meet Ben Cornish, Finn World Cup champion and three-times America’s Cup sailor, and Dylan Fletcher will be dropping by too. Have a chat, get a selfie, an autograph! He’ll be there at 4pm.
