Neil Hunter is tantalisingly close to making SailGP history.

Sally Hunter was a member of the first all-women crew on Maiden during the 1989/90 Whitbread Round the World Race.
The Maiden team was the first all-female crew to sail around the world, with Sally the only Scot amongst them.
To sailing enthusiasts and proud Scots, Sally is a trailblazer who helped change the world.
To Hunter, at least when growing up, Sally was the woman who helped get him ready for school in the morning and showed him the ropes of sailing.
