The Mental Aspect of Sailing

The Mental Aspect of Sailing: "Sailing and golf work in similar ways. You can master all the technical aspects, but it seems the best way to succeed is by staying focused and letting the people in front of you make the mistakes. Sailing is a very challenging sport because one mistake, as simple as one bad tack, whether it is at the wrong time, out of phase, or into a hole, can drop you from the top of the pack to mid-fleet, in a competitive group."
