BIO
Three Olympic Gold medals, two America’s Cup victories and a duffel bag full of World titles speak for themselves: Jochen Schümann (66) is the German authority for victories under sails. His experience of more than half a century will weigh heavily in the battle for the SSL Gold Cup. He never aims at less than winning and certainly ranks amongst sailing’s greats.Best Results
