Jonathan Mckee: Always Looking Forward

Jonathan McKee was inducted into the National Sailing Hall of Fame in 2022. He's a three-time Collegiate All-American and won an Olympic medal at 40. He's won World Championships in boats as chronologically diverse as the Flying Dutchman and the 49er and also in the timeless Taser. He's also done a mini Transat, the Barcelona World Race, and The Ocean Race. For years, he has developed a culture aboard his own boat, the Paul Bieker-designed Dark Star, that readily accepts individuals of all ages and talents and finds a way to bring out the best in all. At 60+, Jonathan is drawing from that experience as he looks forward. His perspective on continuing to sail at a high level is well worth your time. We chatted with these sailors as part of our At The Front Digital Digest.
