Etchells World Championship 2025: Measurement

One of three measurement days for the Etchells World Championship 2025. Meticulous planning by a team of volunteers, both Royal Brighton Yacht Club members and visitors, led by Bill Abbott the ICEA Chief Measurer and Joanne Abbott (US Olympian and volunteer). Take a look behind the scenes, and hear why measurement in this class is an important part of the process from (in order of appearance): Bill Abbott - Chief Measurer Margaret Rowe Findlay - Volunteer & owner of Etchellente AUS1048 Eliza Ewart - Mid Gybe Crisis AUS1245 Patrick Purcell / Joanne Abbott - Measurement Team Volunteers Richard Smith - Kelpie AUS882 Lots more to come when the main event kicks off on 9 January with the practice race, with the first day of official racing on 10 January. Thanks to HillPDA, Vakaros, North Sails, Musto and the Victorian Government, along with the RBYC and their sailors for their support of this regatta.
