Matt Gotrel brings Olympic-champion power to the Swiss cockpit. A gold medallist with the British men's rowing eight at Rio 2016, he made the rare crossing from elite rowing to elite sailing — and did it at the very top, racing in SailGP with Emirates Great Britain and in the America's Cup with INEOS Britannia.
As grinder, his job is brutally simple and brutally hard: generate the hydraulic power that flies the boat. Few athletes in the fleet can match the sustained output of a world-class rower, which is exactly why crews like this one go looking for them.
