Hear from Australian Sailing Squad's Jake Lilley (QLD) about how his ISAF Sailing World Cup Miami (26-31 January 2015) went. The Queenslander was called the rising star of the Finn fleet and put in an exceptional performance in a tough fleet and a range of conditions finishing overall third. At 21-years of age, Lilley was the youngest Finn sailor in Miami and with his coach John Bertrand the current Junior European Champion is making steady progress. Lilley only joined the class in 2013 and is one of its fastest rising stars. Only time will tell whether he can continue this momentum, but there is no doubt that performing well at Rio is his aim.
