We are very privileged to have as our guest today Lorie Stout, a well known, very experienced and successful sailor from the Annapolis area. 

Lorie's winning ways started early and continued at Boston University where she was ranked 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place in the Women’s National championships during her college years, as well as winning the Fowle trophy for top team.   Her post college sailing career continued in the same style, winning the  Snipe North Americans, a one design that she became known for.  She also finished 4th in the Worlds, 1st in the US Nationals and 5th in the Pan American games.  Aside from Snipes, she also has a ton of experience in Melges 15 and 24, J/22 and J/105.   Lorie is well-known in the Annapolis area for her sailing prowess as well as her sailing clothing company, Stoutgear.   https://www.stoutgear.com/
