Top Swiss photographer Juerg Kaufmann worked with some of the world's top sailors to come up with this video, with a lot of onboard and close up images, and some very unique angles.

Noted for taking a different approach to the art of photography, and sailing videos for the past year, join Juerg and his team and step aboard, to see Robert Sheidt (BRA) and other top sailors as you have never seen them before.
