Let's create a 'Win Win'...
If you have customers and/or an audience that are passionate about competitive sailboat racing, then we'd love to have a conversation with you.
Road To Gold is a 12-week online bootcamp to help sailors achieve their full potential on the race course, designed and put together by Hamish Willcox, coach to Olympic champions Pete Burling and Blair Tuke.
My name’s Andy Rice, sailing journalist and commentator, and with my co-creator Hamish Willcox we’ve put our heart and soul into crafting a course that takes the sailor through a step-by-step process of self-coaching that is almost guaranteed to make them a faster sailor with a much clearer plan for how to assemble a winning campaign.
While much of the Road To Gold course refers to Olympic sailing and campaigning, the principles apply equally to almost every type of competitive sailing, all the way from Optimist and other junior racing programs through sportsboats such as the J/70 to professional grand prix campaigns in high-level keelboats like the TP52.
Road To Gold has received endorsements from the likes of Russell Coutts, Barbara Kendall, and of course, Pete Burling and Blair Tuke, who you can see in our promotional video on the RTG homepage.
For more information on the course itself, take a look at the summary at the bottom of this page. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
