Send the Girls to the Worlds

Erin and Isla Kee need funds to take part in the RS Feva European and World Championships in Hungry and Italy this winter. They will fly flag for NZ and Kerikeri Cruising Club.

The events will be held between 9th and 28th July 2023.

Erin (16) and Isla (14) are up and coming Northland sailors. In April this year they placed 2nd overall at the NZ National Championships and are the Women's Champions for 2023.

Erin and Isla love all aspects of sailing. They are key members of the Kerikeri High School Teams Racing Squad. Recently they were part of a team that qualified for the gold fleet at the Harken Secondary School Keelboat Championships. They also love to sail to bays in the Bay of Islands and camp on some of our local islands.

The girls have a strict training programme. They work hard on their fitness at the Community Gym before school and sail three or four times a week to improve their skills.

They have been working hard to raise funds for their sailing selling sausages, cakes and delivering coffees at parent’s nights. They still need more funds to enable this campaign to be successful for travel, accommodation, and a new suit of sails.
