a Roller Coaster ride
to Tokyo

L
et's take a look at the daunting list
that it is taking for Sarah Douglas to:
1) get to this level of excellence, 2)
get to the starting line in Tokyo. To say the
least, this has been a complicated journey
with a lot of speed bumps. The normal
complications and stresses of an international level sailing campaign have been
multiplied to staggering levels by Olympic
postponements, plus unpredictable, never-before hurdles due to COVID19.
Winter is cold in Canada - we know
that. Earlier this year, with paperwork and
meticulous documentation in hand Sarah
headed to Florida with her boat in tow to
do some work with her training partner,

compete in those Midwinters, which she
eventually won. At the border, she was
turned back as non-essential. On to Plan
B - shipping her boat and car and flying
south, which cost a fortune and created
a lot of unexpected headaches. Getting
the coaching boat to the regatta involved
almost losing a trailer wheel, plus a second flat tire incident.

by a year with an on-again-off-again
cloud looming during the dozen intervening months.
Training in the winter against the
world's best, who will have to be beaten if a
medal is on the agenda, requires traveling.
Traveling during COVID19 requires intricate flight logistics, plus risk mitigation
followed by lengthy quarantines each trip.
THE WORK IS PAYING OFF
Currently, the goal is in sight. Sarah is
in Portugal competing against the tough
Europeans and readying herself for the
biggest stage of her competitive career.
If there's a sailor who can do this, Sarah
