Last month, Artemis Racing welcomed British Olympic gold medalist Shirley Robertson to the base in Bermuda, and to Oman, the venue of the first Louis Vuitton America’s Cup World Series event of the year.

Robertson has her own Sailing TV show, CNN Mainsail, and in three episodes she portrays the life of Artemis Racing Team Manager, and Olympic medalist, Iain Percy (GBR). With just over a year to the start of the 35th America’s Cup, the race is on to win the oldest trophy in international history.

Iain Percy (GBR) has won Olympic Gold Medals in the Star (2008) and Finn (2000) classes, and a Silver medal in the Star class (2012).
