2. I am a former sailor competing for 18 years in different sailing boats: Optimist (World Champion 1986, European Champion 1983/82), 470 and Finn (1991 European Junior Champion) Olympic classes. I was a member of pre-Olympic sailing teams for Seoul´88, Barcelona´92 and Atlanta´96  in 470 & Finn class. Now, I have my Fx One Hobie sailing boat in Hong Kong and sailing for pleasure...no more racing!
