Swallow, Swift, racing hard.

Lisa McDannell (22) is racing her third Cowes Week, this time on Swift (Swallow). She says the Aberdeen Asset Management's Under 25 Youth is a fantastic initiative for young teams like hers who would otherwise not even be able to consider taking part. "The free entry is the main driving factor for us and they give us great kit and help us out.

"Getting the opportunity to sail with your mates at an event as big and as prestigious as Cowes is a great opportunity and we are going to keep doing it for as long as we can."
