Kees Postma SUMMARY
The most recent achievements I was a part of include class wins in the Middle Sea Race and the Transatlantic Race with Team Maverick, the foil-assisted Infiniti 46R. The pit is my main area of expertise but I am an experienced all-rounder and fast driver. On top of sailing I have a broad skill base which includes boatbuilding, systems installation, and maintenance.
