PURPOSE

New Zealand International Yachting Trust Inc (commonly referred to as the NZL Yachting Trust) is an independent trust which was established in 1988 by well known yachtsmen the late Don St Clair Brown MBE and Sir Tom Clark KB.

Its objective is to assist in funding expenses of New Zealanders competing in Olympic and other top level international yachting competitions.

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 to those in most other leading sailing nations.
