Crew Dynamics - Richard Parslow © Road to Gold
Richard Parslow has stayed at the front of the fleet for more than 40 years. From winning the Fireball World Championships with Kim Slater in 1980, through many championship wins in other dinghies like the Merlin Rocket, Olympic campaigning in the 470 to present day victories in small keelboats like the Dragon and Etchells (with former America’s Cup and Whitbread skipper Lawrie Smith at the helm), Richard has pretty much done it all.
Every crew has its own DNA, and with Richard the Road To Gold team will be exploring Crew Dynamics. What makes a team tick and how do you bring out the best in each other to make the boat go faster?
