Abi Stodel, the younger sister of Hannah, has sailing clearly in her blood. She
joins the team this year and will be working with them full time in the
build up to the games. She will be steering the tune up boat, Riposte,
taking over from Dan Parsons as he finishes his engineering degree at Loughborough.
Abi started off in Optimists, working her way through the Mirror and Laser
Radial classes as well as a little bit in the 29er with Hannah.
Abi's highlights include a very credible 6th at the Europeans with 200 boats
, as well as winning the coveted Eric Twinane trophy on one of first outings
as a helm.
She is currently studying Veterinary Nursing at Otley College with a view to
becoming a vet.
