Michelle DeFraites: Kendall Pearson

Quotes 

• Kendall Pearson : It has nothing to do with anybody - except me. The other racers would think I was crazy. I'd set off on some tacking angle that made no sense to them because they couldn't see what I saw. I could sense the changes in the wind - before they happened... Top of the game - you play by different rules.

• Martha Masters : Did you always know that sailing was 'it' for you? That it was the right thing?

  Kendall Pearson : I didn't even start till I was 10 & at first I was not a fan. Certainly there's plenty not to like about sailing.

  Martha Masters : But now that you're so into it...

  Kendall Pearson : Oh, no. There's still plenty of things I hate about it. I hate being wet. I hate being cold. I hate eating nothing but freeze dried food.

  Martha Masters : That was quite the endorsement.

  Kendall Pearson : Sailing is amazing, but it doesn't mean I love every second on the boat. Doing what you love means dealing with things you don't. If there were nothing to overcome it might not be that... ow!
