Dylan Fletcher, the skipper of Britain's SailGP team, celebrated a dramatic triumph in the SailGP three-boat grand final, dubbing it the '$2 million lottery'. The British team out-sailed New Zealand and Australia in a high-stakes finale, securing the championship and its lucrative prize.
Fletcher acknowledged the challenges of adapting crew roles on the F50 catamaran aided their victory, emphasizing the importance of strategic planning. Despite his lesser experience with the M32 catamaran class, Fletcher's leadership prevailed in a race characterized by equal competition among identical boats.
Looking forward to 2026, Fletcher aims for consistency, drawing lessons from both high and low points of the previous season. Already gearing up for the next season starting in Perth, Fletcher's team hopes to replicate their winning formula to maintain their competitive edge on the global SailGP stage.
