Steve Sleight taught himself to sail at the age of 10, and was teaching others by the time he was 14. Formerly a Royal Yachting Association Coach and instructor at the UK's National Sailing Centre, he has taught dinghy sailing, cruising, and competitive racing both in dinghies and in cruiser/racers. Steve has sailed a wide variety of monohulls and multihulls, ranging in length from 10 feet (3 meters) to 130 feet (45 meters), and has been a successful racing yachtsman, and British National Champion. Steve is an experienced author and broadcaster, and has written extensively on sailing. He lives on his own boat, which he also races and cruises. Dennis Conner has just led his team through an unprecedented eighth America's Cup campaign, after winning the America's Cup four times previously. Conner has been titled United States Yachtsman of the Year four times, and has won many awards, including world championships in boats from 11 feet (3.5 meters) to 80 feet (24 meters), has a still unequaled Star class record, and was twice a winner of the Star World Championships. Conner's other accomplishments and accolades include a bronze medal in the 1976 Olympic Games, a new transatlantic record in the Whitbread Round The World Race, and winning the 2000 New Zealand Etchells National Championships. He is a prolific author and publisher, and now lives in San Diego.
