Hank is at nearly every event and often times can be found at Sail Newport helping make improvements to the RC gear prior to and after regattas. Hank is an incredibly kind and fun person to be around and an excellent race management team member. He has spent the last 3 summers at Sail Newport helping to pass along his experience and knowledge in the world of race management and we are very grateful to have him on our team," adds Duggan. Congratulations to Hank and thank you for your extraordinary dedication to Sail Newport and our regattas.
