Ft. Lauderdale, FL Today, US Sailing announced the nominees for the US Sailing 2009 Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year Award. I'm happy to announce that two members of our team were named to the shortlist for this year's award; Molly O'Bryan Vandemoer and I made the list. I was honored to win this award last year.
