THE TEAM
Ocean sailing teams are unique in the world of sport. The environment is like none other on earth, and the demands and challenges are significant. There are no time-outs, no redos, and no opportunities to walk off the field. It requires a variety of capabilities, refined skills, and 100% dedication. Our team members are selected for having all of these attributes along with the ability to drive forward through adversity with positivity, and determination.
