- Abstract
The author talks about the evolution of sailing technologies amid his pursuit of the Olympic Gold. According to the author, dinghy racing and sailing is his favourite since he was a kid. Information on the 49er sailing dinghy is provided. In 2008, he and his sailing partner started their Newfoundland for Gold campaign using the 49er class. They used a superior carbon mast for an April 2009 event. He cites the Automatic Identification System as one of the most impressive technologies in sailing.
