Tune in to the latest episode of the Lessons Learned Podcast series by UK Sailmakers featuring special guest Marie Rogers, a trailblazing figure in the world of offshore racing and advocate for diversity in sailing.
As the skipper of the Alan Andrews-designed 56-foot sailboat, GOOD TROUBLE, in the 2023 Transpacific Race, Marie Rogers is a force to be reckoned with. Her passion and determination shine in her dedication to fostering diversity in the sport through many endeavors, including co-founding the Offshore Sailing Outreach (ORO) non-profit organization.
She also discusses working with Sylvain Barrielle from UK Sailmakers San Francisco and members of the UK Sailmakers LA loft in the sail preparations for the 2023 TransPac race.
