TEAM SHOSHOLOZA SUPPORTS WORLD AIDS DAY

Cape Town: The SA America's Cup Yacht Shosholoza RSA 48 will be flying a vast Aids ribbon painted on their 33 metre spinnaker on Wednesday 1 December in support of World Aids Day.

Weather and wind direction depending Shosholoza will sail as close inshore as possible off Sea Point, Green Point and the V&A Waterfront so that the spinnaker will be easily visible to those on shore.

The special flying of the spinnaker is part of Wola Nani's Red Ribbon Campaign around the theme of "Everyone can make a difference" to build awareness around the fight against HIV/Aids.

The Shosholoza Yacht is skippered by Geoff Meek, the brainchild behind the Reichel-Pugh 37 production yacht and who heads up the Windsong Yachts consortium.
