Brian Bissell - Snipe Sailor

Brian Bissell graduated from college as a two time all american sailor and gravitated to the Snipe Class as part of his work with North Sails One Design. He's stayed with the Class because of the high level of competition that's possible. Brian's been to the Worlds in Portugal and San Diego and the Western Hemispheres in Uruguay since joining the class five years ago.

Brian talks about why collegiate sailors should think about the Snipe as their boat of choice. Even though the boat has lots of tuning adjustments, its possible to go out and be competitive with just a little help from other Snipers. Greg Fisher gave him three basic rig tunes and sent him out on the course.
