Seattle's Native Son Speaks Up On Sailing

We found this interview with Jonathan McKee on Three Sheets Northwest. It's a good read.

Jonathan is life-long sailor who's won two Olympic medals, cruises a 44-foot sloop with his family, and can be found these days on a variety of sportboats including a Melges 32, Moth and Melges 24.

At SailFast, we believe most sailors are pretty mutli-faceted, getting their fix a variety of ways over a lifetime. Jonathan is a good example of this. His home port may be Seattle but his experience goes well beyond.

Thanks to Three Sheets for publishing this. Also, McKee spoke in a fireside chat last Friday at the Seattle Yacht Club to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Thanks, Jonathan, for supporting LLS and the fight against blood cancers.
