Paul Cayard
A passion for racing
Paul Cayard has a towering record of achievement in the world of sailing. The American has frequently changed speciality, switching from inshore regatta to offshore racing with the same level of skill and commitment. A finalist in the Star class (a double-handed keel yacht) at the Athens 2004 Olympic Games, he won seven world titles, including in both the Star and Maxi classes in 1988. His most prestigious win in offshore racing came when he led his crew to victory in the 1997-1998 Whitbread Round the World Race. A multiple America’s Cup participant and Rolex Yachtsman of the Year in 1998, Cayard has been a Rolex Testimonee since 2000.
