ILCA 4

Roger Hakes - ILCA 4 Representative

I am an ILCA 7 sailor with two sons currently sailing ILCA 4s, Tom and Will. We live in Poole and sail at Parkstone Yacht Club. We all enjoy sailing our ILCAs whenever and wherever we can - at our club, regionally and nationally, and overseas when we have the opportunity.

I look forward to supporting all of our ILCA 4 sailors make the most of their sailing whatever their aspirations - please do reach out using the contact form below with questions, issues or feedback and I’ll do my best to assist.
