The reality is regardless of gender to make it in an olympic sailing event you have to be supremely fit.....any of the sailors would knock spots off the fitness of any of us forum posters regardless of their sex......I have very close contact with all the GBR teams and I do know how many hours a day they spend in the gym on fitness and strength.......the girls level of fitness makes me ashamed of physical ability.......any one who questions their fitness and physical aptitude really have no f**king idea..... And to that note, the Brits seem to have the recruitment and development program figured out pretty well also.

If a man is to be obsessed by something.... I suppose a boat is as good as anything... perhaps a bit better than most.
