The Royal Varuna Yacht Club situated on its own picturesque cove at Pattaya on the Gulf of Thailand, has a proud regal past as the place where King Bhumipol chose to follow his great interest in competitive sailing, and a shining future as a club where young sailors can develop their skills on the water and in some cases go on to represent their country in the sport. On a weekend with the much prized Varuna Cup in the offing, we meet one young champion who has the support of the community minded Thai company Kingdom Property, in striving for success with sails.
