Meet the women making waves. We are proud to introduce Evening The Keel, a Musto series in collaboration with @WorldSailingTV, where pro female sailors talk equality, motherhood, and getting ahead in a male dominated sport.

Part 1: Female Sailor

Years ago, Tracy Edwards stormed the world of offshore racing with her all-female crew, setting a new precedent for women in the sport. But where are we now? We started an important conversation with some of the industry's best-loved pro female sailors.

Produced by Musto, with support from World Sailing, the series addresses themes such as feelings about the term 'female' sailor, diversity within teams, juggling an offshore sailing career and motherhood and the opportunities for change in the sport.

The series is narrated by Tracy Edwards MBE, skipper of the first all-female crew in the Whitbread Round the World Yacht Race onboard Maiden in the 1989/90 edition, and joined by some of the world's best sailors.

Part 2: Diversity or Clones. Coming May 24.
