PURPOSE
The New Zealand International Yachting Trust (now generally referred to as the NZL Yachting Trust) is an independent trust established in 1988 by well known yachtsmen Mr Don St Clair Brown MBE and Sir Tom Clark KB. Its objective is to assist in funding New Zealanders competing in Olympic and other top level international yachting competitions. It is registered under the Charitable Trusts Act 1957.
The founders believed that if New Zealand is to maintain its place as one of the top yachting nations in the world it is essential that our sailors have adequate opportunity to compete successfully in international championships.
As New Zealand is very remote geographically from traditional centres of competition, the high cost of travel and transport, and ever increasing campaign costs, place our sailors at a considerable competitive and financial disadvantage.
