A look back at Weymouth
|
|
We're just back from the Sail for Gold event in Weymouth, England, the venue for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. We competed in all 13 Olympic and Paralympic events and had a full team and staff over there. It was quite an operation. But any reasonable scan of the results showed some things we're not used to seeing from the US Sailing Team AlphaGraphics. The results were noticeably down this week, and one has to wonder why. We've spent a lot of time looking at it over the past few days since the event ended, and I've spoken to a number of our coaches. And the analysis comes down to two things.

Coach Boat - Kenneth Andreasen |
|
We are just over a year away from the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games and we have now had the chance to see Weymouth and Portland from yet another side when we participated in the 2011 Skandia Sail for Gold. This time we saw a regatta with 15 knots or more wind for most races and it was quite cold. We are very happy that we get to see so many different conditions, as we every time are able to take note and keep our records up to date.
