BBC presenter Lewis Coombs, joins Jessye and the team sailing at Cowes.

Following Jessye’s YJA award, the BBC came to watch him in action. He explains how chuffed he is to be recognised for his dedication to the sport. He talks about traveling from Tottenham to Cowes whenever he can, putting in time and effort to improving his sailing and helping others to find their own path to success. Such is the character of this young man – he continues to credit Jon Holt for making his achievement possible. With the recent press interest in him, he is keen to take the opportunity to encourage more young people into the sport, particularly from communities that are under represented in sailing.
