    A chance for Kiwi sailor Jo Aleh to get up to speed in a new class of boat


    The 2012 Olympic gold medallist has been racing with Molly Meech in the 49er class, using this weekend's Oceanbridge Regatta in Auckland's Torbay to gear up for Olympic qualifiers and next month's world championships in Spain.

    Aleh says it's been a great experience learning new tricks.



    Aleh and Meech have a three point lead in the Oceanbridge Regatta after winning all three of their races on day one.
