By US SAILING press release
Lightning World Champion Jeff Linton (Tampa, Fla.) and Princess Sofia Trophy Yngling Champion Sally Barkow (Nashotah, Wis.) today were named, respectively, US SAILING's 2007 Rolex Yachtsman and Yachtswoman of the Year. A shortlist of 10 male and nine female sailors - determined from nominations by the membership of US SAILING - were evaluated by a panel of sailing journalists who selected these two sailors for the noteworthy distinction.
Established in 1961 by US SAILING and sponsored by Rolex Watch U.S.A. since 1980, the Rolex Yachtsman and Yachtswoman of the Year awards recognize the outstanding on-the-water competitive achievement of an individual man and woman in the calendar year just concluded. The winners will be honored and presented with specially engraved Rolex timepieces during a luncheon on February 29, 2008, at the New York Yacht Club in Manhattan.
Rolex Yachtsman of the Year - When Jeff Linton (Tampa, Fla.) received his first nomination for the Rolex Yachtsman of the Year award in 2005, it was the result of crewing aboard winning boats at the Etchells World Championship and the J/24 Midwinters, combined with a string of four top-five finishes in the Lightning class. Fast forward two years to find the 45-year-old Linton now semi-retired, having sold his partnership interest in Masthead Enterprises, and in the helmsman's position, dominating the Lightning class, for which he has been crowned the 2007 Rolex Yachtsman of the Year.
"This was a remarkable year," said Linton. "Everything fell into place. We've become more consistent as a team, and because work was secondary there was more time to fix the boat and more time to practice. Winning the Rolex Yachtsman of the Year award is one of those things you dream about. You get a few wins, and you think 'maybe I could get my name on that [trophy].' It's the pinnacle, and after 38 years of sailing, I've finally done it."
Linton won the 2007 Lightning World Championship in Athens, Greece, in a fleet of 48 with 11 nations represented, but he noted that the hardest event to win in 2007 was the Lightning Winter Championship, which has no restrictions on the number of entries. At that 71-boat event, contested in St. Petersburg, Fla., he edged out numerous notable sailors to win by just one point. His success in the class also included: the South American Championship held in Bogota, Columbia, where first-place finishes in three races ultimately gave him a 14-point win over the 20-boat field; the title win at the Florida District Championship; a second-place finish at the Lightning Deep South Regatta in Savannah, Ga.; and second overall in the Lightning Southern Circuit out of 42 boats.
Linton also earned additional praise from the selection committee for performance in two other competitive one-design classes: he won the Flying Scot North American Championship and the Classic Moth National Championship.
"The Flying Scot class is similar in many respects to the Lightning," Linton explained. "Both have a large membership base in the U.S.A. and professional sailors are active in both classes. The Moth, which was well-known in the 1930s and '40s and built in basements, is still a build-your-own boat. My current boat is four years old and undefeated. If someone beats her, I'll have to build a new one."
Linton moved to Florida as an infant and grew up sailing with his father, a marine biologist, and his brother, John, on the family's Morgan 24. He first tasted success in one-design racing as a teenager on a windsurfer; and while he went to Eckerd College on a soccer scholarship, he ultimately ended up in the collegiate sailing program. His wife, Amy Smith Linton, is his regular crew in the Lightning and Flying Scot, making her a world champion as well. "A lot of time spouses don't work together [in the boat]. I don't know the secret; we just try to have fun."
Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year - Sally Barkow (Nashotah, Wis.) has reclaimed her position as the top woman racer in the U.S.A. upon being named the 2007 Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year. First recognized with the honor in 2005, Barkow was nominated to the shortlist for the sixth consecutive year and now joins a select group of women who have received the accolade more than once.
"This is exciting and unexpected! I was shocked when I got the call," said Barkow, who is training in Florida until the end of February with her Yngling teammates Debbie Capozzi (Bayport, N.Y.) and Carrie Howe (Grosse Pointe, Mich.). "The other nominated sailors are extremely distinguished and accomplished, all very deserving of this great honor."
Like the football star who cannot win the Heisman Trophy without his team, Barkow acknowledged she would not be receiving this award for the second time without the support of the talented team on which she relies. "I have not sailed a single-handed boat since 2002 and I believe that teamwork is our biggest asset on the water. Debbie has sailed with me in every event this past year, not to mention the preceding five years. Carrie has also been racing with me for the past five years, only missing a few events this year, and Annie Lush (GBR) has raced every match race event and all three of our successful Rolex International Women's Keelboat Championships. Beyond these three, there have been numerous fantastic crew who all deserve a piece of this award. Our sport involves a great deal of teamwork, and it is the entire team that makes success happen. This award is for my entire team!"
Although Barkow's primary focus has been helming her Yngling with a goal of representing the U.S.A. at the 2008 Olympic Games in China, her performance in other classes, whether fleet or match racing, were what set her apart in 2007. Barkow started the year with her third consecutive win of the Rolex Miami OCR in the Yngling class. On task in the Yngling, she finished second at the North American Championship in Miami, won the Princess Sofia Trophy in Spain and collected silver at both Semaine Olympique Française in France and the ISAF Sailing World Championships in Portugal.
Barkow's turn on the match racing circuit was highlighted by wins at the Boat U.S. Santa Maria Cup in Annapolis, Md., and the Vitória Brasil Women's Cup in Brazil. Flying straight from Brazil to Houston, Texas, Barkow took the helm of a J/22 to close the year as she had started it -- collecting another championship title for the third consecutive time. She won US SAILING's Rolex International Women's Keelboat Championship (IWKC) without having to sail the final race of the series after topping a field that included past winner and fellow Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year ('95, '01) Cory Sertl (Rochester, N.Y.), as well as Anna Tunnicliffe (Plantation, Fla.) who will represent the U.S.A. at the 2008 Olympic Games in the Laser Radial event. Only one other woman has won the Rolex IWKC multiple times: Betsy Alison (Newport, R.I.) has won not only the regatta but also the Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year award a record-setting five times.
The 27-year-old Barkow grew up in a sailing family and started receiving national recognition as two-time ICSA (Inter-Collegiate Sailing Association) All-American (2001 and 2002) while studying Psychology at Old Dominion University (Norfolk, Va.). Since graduating from ODU, her single-minded focus has been her goal of competing at the Olympics in the Yngling class. The linchpin to that quest will be the Yngling World Championship in February which will be the final event in a series that will determine if Barkow's team represents the U.S.A. at the 2008 Olympic Games in China.

US Sailing, the national governing body for the sport of sailing, released a book, “Learn Sailing Right! Beginning Sailing.”
Written by the country's leading professional sailing instructors, the book helps beginning sailors gain confidence by using easy-to-understand text and graphics.
The book starts with a tour of a typical small sailboat, and explains the concepts of how sails harness the wind to move a boat through the water. The next step puts the sailor on board the boat and describes how to steer and adjust the sails to go in the right direction. The book wraps up with seamanship skills that make sailing safer and easier.
The foreword is written by renowned sailing commentator, historian and expert sailor Gary Jobson.
"For the first time aspirant sailing might seem intimidating, but thanks to Learn Sailing Right!, one can quickly understand the concepts thanks to simple diagrams and clear descriptions," Jobson writes. "This book gets right to the basics and serves as a practical guide and handy reference for the entire crew.”
The 64-page “Learn Sailing Right!” is now available online through the US Sailing store at http://store.ussailing.org. The cost of the book is $17.95 ($12.50 for US Sailing members).

PUMA Ocean Racing Skipper Ken Read and America's Cup veteran and BMW Oracle Racing executive Tom Ehman will share insights about the Volvo Ocean Race and America's Cup, respectively, in Newport, R.I.
Their presentations will be delivered at the Sailing Industry Conference June 11-12.
Sail America and Sail Magazine are presenting Read at the conference's welcome reception from 6-10 p.m. June 11 at the Newport Yachting Center.
“Widely regarded as one of the top American professional sailors, Read has won at every level of the sport. He's a world champion, America's Cup helmsman, and now skipper of PUMA Ocean Racing, a competitor in the Volvo Ocean Race,” said Sail publisher Josh Adams, in a statement.
The Sailing Company, publishers of Cruising World and Sailing World magazines, is presenting Ehman, head of external affairs for BMW Oracle Racing, as the after-dinner speaker at the conference's gala dinner from 6:30-11 p.m. June 12 at the International Yacht Restoration School.
“Tom Ehman has been on the front lines of the America's Cup and he will be joining us at a particularly timely moment, since the next court hearing is due June 5 that will impact the future of the Cup,” said Sally Helme, publisher of Cruising World and Sailing World magazines, in a statement. “We also invited Tom because he has been involved in many of the changes and innovations that have transformed top-level sailing into the modern, professional and more media-friendly sport that it is today.”

SpinSheet, the Annapolis, Md.-based sailing magazine, has launched an online gallery of downloadable photos of Chesapeake Bay sailing events on its Web site at www.spinsheet.com.
The first step in the print magazine's Web site modernization, the gallery features photos of the National Offshore One-Design Regatta April 25-27 and the USODA Opti Team Trials from May 1-4 and will soon display racing scenes from the National Hospice Cup Championships, which took place May 9-11.
Although current images highlight Annapolis-based regattas, SpinSheet intends to incorporate photos from major regatta and non-racing events all over the Bay as the season progresses.
“Every month, SpinSheet readers request copies of photos we've printed in the magazine,” said editor Molly Winans in a statement. “They have no idea how many more great shots we have of them and their boats on file. This is our chance to share hundreds of updated photos with active Bay sailors and their families every week of the season.”
SpinSheet's Photo Gallery went live a week after the April launch of its 24-page new sailor program, Start Sailing Now, which is designed to help would-be sailors become active Bay sailors this season (www.startsailingnow.com).
