Lawrie Smith is a winner - arguably Britain's most successful racing sailor. And he's prolific too. His victories include many international championships. He's raced in dinghies, he's raced in the Champagne Mumm Admiral's Cup. He's raced in the Ultra 30 Grand Prix, the Whitbread Round the World Race, the America's Cup and the Olympics. He wins medals.
Throughout these successes the common winning denominator has been boat speed. Here Smith teaches how to develop and maintain this vital ingredient.
From the preliminary stages with the boat ashore, through the processes of tuning afloat and, finally, into a race, this program shows tuning Lawrie Smith-style in high quality, close-up action. Plus personal snapshots of this international sailor's life.
