Jiang Lin, skipper of Min River, features in the first episode of our Skipper Profile series ahead of the 2021 Noakes Sydney Gold Coast Yacht Race.
Jiang travelled to Denmark in 2018 and immediately fell in love with the X-43 she called Min River, after the largest river in her home province of Fujian, China.
Min River has since been a regular feature of the Cruising Yacht Club of Australia's sailing calendar, with Jiang sailing both fully-crewed and two-handed.
After racing in the Bird Island Race and Cabbage Tree Island Race in 2020, Jiang will take on her biggest two-handed race in this year's Noakes Sydney Gold Coast.
Watch the full video below to find out more about what Jiang expects from the opening race of the Audi Centre Sydney Blue Water Pointscore.
