Sailing Sideways: How To Become A Double World Champion In Different Boats
This summer, I was lucky enough to win the Tera Sport World Championships, surprisingly making me the first person to be a double World Champion in both a Topper and a Tera.
Hansa World Championships: The Importance of UV Protection on the Race Course
Blog written by Kirsten Pollock, SKUD18 Sailor
Hansa are the largest manufacturer in the world of sail boats used by people with disabilities. The boats are designed to a Universal principle, with weighted keels, that allows anyone, whether young, old, able or with a disability to sail easily and safely, making sailing a very equal and inclusive sport.
Every two years the five Hansa Classes come together for an International and World Championships. The boats are named by metric size, the smallest is the 2.3, then 303 divided into one and two-person fleets, the larger Liberty and finally the fast and powerful Paralympic SKUD18.
The 2025 Hansa Worlds took place at Pittwater, near Sydney, Australia. Sixteen nations, with competitors from Australia, Chile, France, Germany, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, South Korea, Spain and USA took part and, representing Great Britain in the SKUD Class, was me, crewed with top local sailor Brett Pearce who was Australian Reserve Crew for the 2016 Paralympics in Rio. Other illustrious names in the fleet were Dan Fitzgibbon, three times Paralympic Medallist, plus Asia Pacific SKUD Champion Neil Rowsthorne.
The Rooster clothing was brilliant, especially the long sleeved UV top, neck sleeve and cap helped protect me and my crew from the sun. I have fair skin and burn very easily so having the right clothing especially in strong UV conditions makes all the difference. I could focus on sailing rather than having to contend with sunburn etc.
After the regatta I went travelling and Rooster were with me every step or wheel of the way. I spent a few days in central Sydney. I then went to Uluru, from there I went to Port Douglas and went to the Barrier Reef, I wore Rooster kit in the water to protect me from the UV rays. I then went to Melbourne.
My Rooster kit proved to be the ultimate travel companion — keeping me protected, comfortable, and ready for whatever came next. Whether I was sailing in high-performance conditions or exploring some of Australia’s most iconic landscapes, having reliable gear made all the difference. I genuinely wouldn’t travel — or sail — without it.

Supporting Sailing Opportunities for Southport Schoolchildren
Blog submitted by Richard Westlake, West Lancashire Yacht Club
At West Lancashire Yacht Club, we believe sailing should be for everyone — regardless of background or income. That’s why, over the past few years, we’ve worked hard to grow our Outreach Programme, making sailing more accessible to young people in our local community.
In 2024, we were honoured to receive the RYA Sunsail “Funding the Future” Award — national recognition for our grassroots outreach work. It’s a programme built in partnership with local primary schools, including Norwood and Larkfield, right here in Southport.
Through this initiative, we’ve introduced nearly 200 Year 5 pupils to the water — many of whom had never even considered sailing before. With the help of our fantastic volunteers and the enthusiastic support of the schools, every child has been able to take part, regardless of experience or financial circumstance. Teachers have joined in too, showing how sailing can connect people of all ages and abilities.
But this is about more than just one day on the marine lake in the heart of the children's hometown. For us, it’s about building confidence, sparking ambition, and creating real opportunities for young people to progress — whether that’s continuing at club level or one day racing competitively. As a newly recognised British Sailing Pathway Club, we’re committed to helping those journeys continue.
We’re also proud to work closely with Southport schools and with West Lancashire Yacht Club members who give their time, expertise, and passion to support these young sailors. It’s a real community effort — and we’re only just getting started.
This year, we’re excited to be running a raffle alongside our famous 24 Hour Race, helping raise vital funds to support and expand the Outreach Programme, with great prizes from several sponsors. Thanks to the generous support from Rooster, prizes include high-performance kit from their SB1 and Shoreline ranges.
With Rooster’s backing, we’re not just celebrating endurance on the water — we’re investing in a future where more young people can experience the thrill of sailing, no matter their starting point.
Because for us, real endurance isn’t just about sailing non-stop for 24 hours — it’s about building a sport, a club, and a community that lasts a lifetime.

Battling Shifts, Chasing Podiums: Laszlo Drummond’s 2025 Sailing Season so far
Blog submitted by Laszlo Drummond, Rooster Rider - 6659 Optimist GBR Team
- 3rd August 2025
Hi, I am Laszlo, and I am thrilled to be a Rooster Rider, sailing optimists for Great Britian. In recent months I have been training in UK, Venice, Lake Garda, Valencia, Palamos and Portoroz in Slovenia, where I competed in the Optimist World Championship. My most recent competition was the British National Championships in Weymouth, a good but tough event, and I am now packing up for Hayling Island Youth Week in a RS Feva for some fun.
Some of the most recent major events I have attended include The World Championships in Slovenia; it was really challenging sailing with lots of wind shifts and light conditions which was very tough as the wind often move 20 degrees each way without warning. The level was also super high, with very short start lines so the races were often won and lost on the line. There were almost 300 boats with 4 flights which is very different to England as there are never so many boats. The great thing about all of these international events is they are great for learning and improving your skills, as so many of the sailors are of very high standard.
Going back to the British Nationals in Weymouth we had steady wind of 8- 17 knots every day, it would be light in the morning and build throughout the day there was also a lot of shifts, but I managed to stay on top of them and found it a lot better than at the Worlds.
I finished up with Podium as 3rd Senior and 4th Overall, despite having a UFD and a DSQ which I was luckily able to discard but I had to count a 32! My favourite moment was in the last race, which I led all the way, and I won by 50ms - It was windy which are my favourite conditions, and I love sailing and am looking forward to another great year with Rooster.
Rooster has really helped me to push my sailing to new levels by supplying me with excellent kit and great advice from their team. One of my favourite items of kit is their Thermaflex 1.5 mm long john and top as they are super comfortable, durable and warm with lots of movement. Due to its amazing quality this is the only wetsuit I wear but when it gets too cold, I wear the Supertherm 4mm long john as it is very thick. I have been wearing these wetsuits as a Rooster Rider for the past 3 years alongside with the Pro Aquafleece spray-top, the kit is so dependable and high quality it allows me to really focus on my sailing and not worry about my kit.
More Than a Sport: Protecting the Waters I Sail On
Blog submitted by Rooster Rider Amelie Ballantyne, Devon UK
As a keen dinghy sailor, there is nothing I like better than getting in my (Rooster) wetsuit and jumping on my boat- it’s the best feeling in the world! However, over the past year, I have started to realise the effects that humans are having on the waters we use and the oceans in general. The statistics around pollution, climate change and habitat destruction are quite shocking, and unfortunately, the evidence of these statistics can be seen rather close to home sometimes- I often see dead wildlife/sea creatures, plastic pollution and sewage where I sail, and it’s not pleasant. As someone who loves using the water, this concerned me, and I wanted to help bring about change. However, I am only a 15-year-old dinghy sailor from Devon, so what can I possibly do to change this global environmental problem? So, to start with, I did my research and created a list of the simple things I could promote at my club (Starcross Yacht Club). Then, earlier this year, I became a Clean Sailors Ambassador and joined a community of international sailors who all want to raise awareness of ocean conservation and sustainable practices in the marine industry. I also joined the US SailGP Climate Action Academy that links students with A-list sustainable experts to learn about global matters. Using social media has been a great platform, and I have organised old sails and wetsuit collections, as well as helping to raise awareness about key issues. Thank you, ITCA Topper community, for your kind sail and wetsuit donations at NS5 Paignton.
Who are Clean Sailors and what do they do?
Clean Sailors is a non-profit organisation that strives to promote awareness around ocean conservation, amongst other things. Set up in 2020 by Holly Manvell, Clean Sailors share stories, research and campaign for environmental change in the marine industry. One of their big areas of focus is demonstrating what to do with old sails. Currently 97% of sails end up in landfills each year, which is approximately 2000 tons. This is a shocking statistic! Clean Sailors help direct people to local/global businesses that will take your old sails for recycling and repurposing to keep them out of landfills. Many innovative things can be done with old sails, from clothing and accessories, community shelters for schools and villages, to deckchair covers for the beach; creating a better great circular economy.
What can sailors do to help?
As sailors, most of us love the seas and rivers we use and would hate to think we are adding to a large-scale environmental problem, but unfortunately, the reality is that there are things that sailors do that have an impact on the environment around them. When it comes to change, even the small steps can make a difference if we ALL start to do them and work together. Think of the times you may have lost a sweet wrapper while doing a race or dropped your sunnies overboard never to be seen again, or that time you used electrical tape and a bit blows away. Well, if every sailor did this, even by accident, the environmental impact would begin to be a big problem for waterways and communities that use them.
Here are my top six very easy tips for being a more environmentally conscious sailor:
The obvious one – use a reusable drinking bottle and not a single-use plastic bottle. Rooster sells great bottles, and most venues have refill facilities – easy!
Recycle your old kit: Don’t dump sails and wetsuits, and buy second-hand where and when you can.
Save water. After a sail, you don’t need to shower for hours, have a water fight or spend eternity washing your boat – turn taps off!
Use eco-friendly products. There are great boat cleaning products out there, as well as countless products for your body.
Take your rubbish home – use the correct bins – maybe have a snack that is not in a fiddly wrapper -Rule 55 guys!
…use a sunglasses strap/retainer to keep your sunnies on your eyes and not on bottom of the seabed.
I am very proud to be a Clean Sailors Ambassador and to be involved in helping with sustainability and change for our future and the longevity of water sports. In my opinion, educating people about the need to be sustainable and the impact each one of us has while doing the sport we love is important; creating new habits and making changes that benefit our whole environment. We all have a role to play; we all live here. It is great to see that even our top sailors in SailGP are getting on board with becoming clean, green sailors and leading the way with sustainability. I am also very proud to be a Rooster Rider, as Rooster is committed to ethical and sustainable business practices, which is important to me.

The weather conditions on the Llyn Peninsula (at Pwllheli and Abersoch which is further west) can be complex but they give some of the best sailing conditions you will find.
The Story of Rooster - Words from Founder Steve Cockerill
- Written by Steve Cockerill
When I started the brand, I was so keen to break down the divide between those who knew how to sail a boat and those who didn’t. I was passionate about sharing knowledge — giving people the confidence to enjoy the sport more.
It really all started with me being quietly determined to improve the mainsheet on a Laser (now the ILCA). That was my first goal. I’d tried working with some well-known rope manufacturers, but nothing was quite right. Then I had a brainwave and decided to try it myself. I bought a couple of miles of rope based on that idea… and it worked. People loved it. The breakthrough moment came when I shared it with Robert Scheidt — who was the No. 1 Laser sailor in the world at the time — and he faxed me back saying how much he liked it and asking for more. I’ve still got that fax to this day. That was the spark that made me think, maybe I really could do this.
It started in a room upstairs in my house… then a spare room and a shed in the garden… then a double garage and the lounge… then a small unit, then two units, and then a bigger unit. Now, we’ve got a warehouse and office in the UK and a distribution unit in the US — and we’re just about keeping up! I’m still amazed when I look outside and see how many cars are there… and how many great people are working at Rooster, helping it grow.
It’s taken a long time — and a lot of passion — to build the brand. Friends of mine used to say, “You’ll need at least a million pounds to turn a vision into a brand.” But I thought, no — you just need to make products people really need. Maybe I was a bit naïve. It’s definitely taken more than just money to get Rooster to where it is today. It’s always been a passion project — and it still is. We’re always checking ourselves, asking if we’re being fair to our customers. And it’s still great fun to represent the brand at events, chat to sailors, and see people enjoying the sport. That’s the best bit.
Every now and then people think I’ve retired — which is quite funny, because I haven’t! I’ve just changed my outlook. My wife finally retired from a high-pressure job in school senior leadership, and together we’ve managed to share the workload I used to carry — particularly on logistics and factory liaison. We even split my salary, which has given me a better balance… it’s less five or six days a week now and more like two or three.
Handing over the day-to-day running of Rooster to Luke Morrison wasn’t hard at all. Luke had grown up with Rooster — he first joined us as maternity cover, but quickly showed himself to be a real force. He’s brilliant at building relationships with our dealers… a total diplomat, to be honest. In fact, I think I was holding him back! Luke’s got so much drive, it made complete sense for him to take the lead. You might think that would be hard as the founder — but I know Luke’s as committed to Rooster and its ethos as I am.
So now, I’ve got plenty of time to keep working with our factories, stay close to the logistics, and enough “playtime” to keep me fired and excited for the years ahead.
