HAMPSHIRE sailor Mike Golding got off to a slow start in the first event of the iShares Cup finishing in last position.
Golding who recently switched from single-handed sailing to racing the Extreme 40 catamarans, came tenth with his team Ecover at the event in Venice.
The 48-year-old from Warsash said: “The main thing is that we’re enjoying it a lot. I’ve got great guys on board and we don’t have any speed issues, it’s only a matter of learning now.”
