more-inThe Hobie 16 is no longer an Asian Games class. The new multi-hull mixed Olympic class mandates the presence of one lady sailor in a two-member crew. As India’s quest for Olympic glory continues, the participation of three women in the Hobie inland National championships at Hussain Sagar from Thursday bodes well for the sport. The top four in the first three races from each group will form the gold fleet. Five-time inland National champion Kaushal Kumar Yadav will have absolute novice Uttam Kumar as crew this time.
