2011 IOM Worlds 🌎! As Good As It Gets!!! Great Documentary.

This regatta (and Foster City) were the YouTube videos that got me interested in IOM sailing back in 2021. This video does an extremely excellent job of highlighting the rivalry, camaraderie, and challenge of the IOM World Championships as well as the beginning of the epic reign of Brad Gibson’s “Britpop” and of the British IOM team who dominated the class and developed a league of outstanding model boat racers throughout the world. The Britpop is still today a highly competitive boat after 13 years. What a great group of people. Cheers to you Brit’s 🍻 🥂 👑! Champions in every way.

Brad Gibson congratulates 2011 Champion Peter Stollery after they fought a close battle which came down to the final race! Brad designed the epic IOM called the Britpop which Peter sailed to win the event. Quite a touching win and these British sailors are some of the kindest, finest sportsman that I have ever witnessed in any sport.
