Steve Hunt Part 2: How the Best Sailors Keep It Simple!

Steve Hunt Part 2: How the Best Sailors Keep It Simple!

In Part Two of our conversation with three-time world champion Steve Hunt, we go deep into the tactical decisions that separate good sailors from great ones. Steve starts with a deceptively simple idea: keep it simple. Sail in more wind. Sail towards the mark. But then he takes us deep inside the decision-making process of a world-class tactician. We're pretty much aboard the race boat as he talks us through shifts, pressure, current, course geometry and boat-speed modes — explaining not just what he would do, but exactly why and when. We also explore how to categorize the racecourse, connect the dots in puffy conditions, balance shifts against a favored side, and recognize when the smartest tactical decision is simply to do nothing and sail fast. A practical masterclass in racecourse tactics. REMEMBER - SailFaster listeners get 30% off SteveHuntSailing.com with code SAILFASTER30.
