Formula 1 on the Water: Mike Buckley, Co-Owner, Team Principal & CEO, US SailGP Team

Imagine driving your car about 65 miles an hour down a freeway. Not that hard to imagine, right? Nothing very special about it. Chance are you might do it every day. OK, now imagine that you’re sitting on the roof of that car while it’s speeding down an uneven road at 65 miles per hour while someone throws water in your face. That, my friend, is SailGP (https://sailgp.com/) , which has about as much in common with traditional sailing as a biplane has in common with a fighter jet. That excitement it what drew this episode’s guest Mike Buckley (  / mike-buckley-aa947a1a9  ) to the sport. Already a world champion sailor, Buckley was restless to find his next challenge. After a couple unsuccessful attempts to assemble an America’s Cup syndicate, his future arrived in the form of SailGP. Mike is now the co-owner of SailGP’s Team USA and competes in races around the world. In our conversation, we go into how the kid from small town Cape Cod fell in love with competitive sailing. We talk about the acquisition the United States team, working with his A-List of celebrity investors, and how he harnesses his competitive instincts on the water and in the boardroom.
