💨 Abstract

British sailor Giles Scott, a double Olympic gold medalist, is moving to helm Canada's catamaran team in the SailGP league for the next season. The team was acquired by entrepreneur Greg Bailey. Scott, who holds Canadian citizenship, was approached by team leader Phil Kennard, and found Bailey's plans appealing, giving him the opportunity to become the face of the team. His move marks the first ever transfer fee deal in sailing.
