🚨New Entry Received🚨
Hot on the heels of our 12th L26 entry, Keyuren Maharaj has confirmed his admission, competing on SLFC Spindrift.
The Commodore of UKZN Yacht Club has had his hands full with the launch of his app but is taking a well-deserved break to escape and enjoy one of his beloved hobbies. ‘I love the feeling of freedom you get being offshore of Durban! It truly is a special experience.’
With his grassroots learning the ropes on Container World when he was a pupil at Glenwood High School, Keyuren will be leading a young team mostly from UKZN. Remarkably, this is Keyuren’s tenth MSC Week in succession, his seventh year as skipper and fourth leading SLFC.
‘I think I should get a shirt that says this is my tenth anniversary,’ Keyuren says with a smile. ‘My best moment on the water was in 2019 when we were stuck out at sea in a storm during MSC Week. I was just 16 and skippering a new crew in those over 40 knot winds and I can still remember the adrenaline rushing through my body. It was an experience like no other and incredible. I learnt a lot in those moments, life lessons for which I am grateful for!’
