A woman’s pathway to high level racing
By Katherine Stone
I had the most wonderful opportunity to interview Annie Haeger, at the SailGP Halifax venue. It was especially gratifying for me, as a competitive sailor, mother, teacher and wife to see that pathways have opened up for women to sail at a high, competitive level.
Annie was named ICSA Women’s College Sailor of the Year in 2011 and then went on to be named US Sailing Rolex Sailor of the Year in 2015. She competed at the 2016 Rio Olympics in the 470 Class with her long-time sailing partner Brianna Provancha. She is a six-time national champion.
