Sailmon’s ‘Sail Better’ series of webinars continues following America’s Cup winner Kyle Langford discussing the importance of setting goals with Dylan Fletcher hosting an hour-long how-to on preparing yourself for a dinghy race.

The multi-medal-winning sailor will give you all his insights on how to have one foot on the podium before the regatta even begins.

During the interactive Zoom session next Thursday afternoon 9 December at 2pm GMT, Dylan will emphasise the importance of focusing on the right things long before the gun.

The British Olympic gold medal winner at Tokyo 2020 will share his thoughts about boat preparation, weather conditions, strategy, tactics and more. A good performance during the race is essential, but a decent plan of action is more than important as well.

Moreover, Dylan will share how Sailmon’s MAX and the Sailmon app helped him win gold in the men’s 49er class at the Tokyo Olympics. Which data was the most useful and how did he analyse this data during the road to victory? Get an answer to these and all your other questions — register for the free Zoom webinar HERE.
