Last week it was announced that champion sailor Jimmy Spithill has signed on to become CEO and helm of the United States SailGP Team.
Spithill will lead the U.S. team as it fights to claim the sport’s largest monetary prize of US$1 million when the global league returns for the start of its second season, April 24th-25th, 2021, at the Bermuda Grand Prix presented by Hamilton Princess.
Other SailGP helms including former teammate Tom Slingsby reacted to the news that Spithill will join the fleet for Season 2.
