What a week! We finish 16th at Nacra 17 Worlds and make the US Sailing Team for 2023-24.
We had so many ups and downs this week. From taking a race win off of @ruggitita and @catebanti and following it with a 2, to making some major mistakes and racking up the points, we did it all!
It’s been 9 months since we got back to racing this boat, and 15 months since baby Iren arrived. We checked some big boxes at this Worlds and can see our potential. We are grateful to be surrounded by an excellent team. Coach Tom Zajac (@tomsailing), physios @ellisphysio and @angelapopiol, Iren’s BFF @missnostril, and our amazing family and friends, you are so appreciated.
We are excited for the coming months of training, and are grateful for your support - our fans, donors, followers! While we tried to take a social media break during race week, we received your many wonderful messages of encouragement, and they really filled our hearts. THANK YOU!
Countdown to the 2023 Worlds begins now…

We had the best support crew. Our coach, bronze medalist Tom Zajac, his partner Anna and daughter Liora, Sarah’s mother and father in law, Leslie Lott and Michael Moore, Sarah’s husband Emmett and their son Iren. At the pre-Worlds Sarah and David snatched a third place overall and the whole crew was there to cheer them on. Before racing started, family left so that the team could focus!
Iren is obsessed with the coachboat steering wheel! Precious moments on the road together make the journey vibrant and fulfulling.
Iren and Emmett back in Miami watching mama race!
