The Australian pair of Tess Lloyd and Dervla Duggan only teamed up in early 2022, with the goal to represent Australia in the 49erFX class at the Paris 2024 Olympics. They are currently preparing for the worlds in Nova Scotia, Canada in early September and will then be heading back to Australia for a full summer of training. "We love the reliability of all of the Clamcleat Ltd products we have onboard which allows us to compete at the highest level" explains Tess.
We will be checking in with them over the next 2 years on their progress towards their ultimate goal of being at the Paris Olympics in 2024.
