(Newport, RI)- Maybe. More importantly, he took a graceful dive worthy of an Olympic Gold Medalist diver! How did that happen, one might ask?? The President of North Sails taking a dive into the freezing cold salt water of Narragansett Bay?Well, some clever people at Sailors for the Sea dreamt up the crazy idea to get sailors to donate cash to their organization to support the Sailors for the Sea's “No Trash No Trail No Trace”
campaign and get North Sails President Ken Read to jump off Volvo Ocean Race boat Team Brunel at Leg 7 start!In the end, the donation goal was matched and sure enough, Ken hopped into a comfy drysuit and just after passing Castle Hill Light, he jumped off the transom of the Volvo 65 Team BRUNEL- not a bad dive for a card-carrying member of the A.A.R.P.!
