This week I was able to grab time with Quantum’s Scott Nixon in between his many racing and sail design commitments. It was a fascinating discussion that included thoughts on starting, mark rounding and the tactical advantages of wing-on-wing. I knew Scott would be interesting to have on the pod not just because of his stellar racing pedigree, but also because he is directly involved in testing, design, and development of Quantum’s One Design sail programs, where he is Global Offshore One Design Director. Scott has sailed with Quantum customers to win championships at the World, Gold Cup, European, North American, and National levels. He actively campaigned, coaches and races in the following classes: J/22, J/24, J/70, J/80, J88, J/105, J/109, J/111, C&C 30, Farr 30, Farr 40, NYYC 42, Swan 45, Melges 20, Melges 24, Melges 32,Melges 40, and TP/ORC 52 classes. He has also won World Championships in the Melges 32 & J/111 classes. Scott lives in Annapolis with his wife Alexis and daughters Savannah and Summer. I do hope you enjoy the episode!
