Marbella Marlo at the 2024 2k Global Team Race
This past October, I had the privilege of competing in the 2024 2k Global Team Race, hosted by the prestigious Reale Yacht Club Canottieri Savoia in Naples, Italy. I sailed alongside Andrew Person, Coil Voigt, and Bill Menninger, while our second team comprised Sean Segerbom, Caroline Teare, Marley Mais, and Wills Cook. The regatta brought together twelve talented teams from around the globe for three days of intense racing. Despite the challenges posed by light winds and occasional lightning, which tested the officials' ability to complete enough races, we proudly secured third place in a highly competitive fleet. A sincere thank you to the Newport Harbor Sailing Foundation for their generous support in partially funding this incredible event, allowing us the honor of representing NHYC on the international stage.
