SANTI LANGE
Santi Lange is an Olympic sailor and naval architect from Argentina. Born in 1961, he has won three Olympic medals, two bronze and one gold at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro games, after winning his battle against cancer. The Argentinian Olympic team in Rio included two of his four children, Jago and Klaus, who are also part of the 69F Academy project.
“Sailing will have a great future if it develops in one specific direction, one of more fun, more technique, more speed, less rules and more immediacy. Sailing clubs should be open, more inclusive and respectful of the environment. These factors are what the 69F embodies: the foiling monohull is the key to the future of world sailing and my aim is to popularise it as much as possible”.
