McMillan explains ‘We are passionate about single-handed sailing, about international classes, and about youth sailing and the Lasers.

‘NB Laser Sales is a great business and Michael and Kevin did a fantastic job of starting and building that business to a really strong reputation - in the local and international market. I have known them both for a long time and when the business became available, it was a perfect fit with our Finn activities.

‘NB will continue to trade as it always have providing an exceptional level of service for Laser and RS boats, Kevin will be helping us transition the business over the next few months. Finn's will continue as the prime focus of our holding company Finnports, along with the new Devoti products.
