Ian MacDiarmid & Nevin Snow
49er
Two sailors. One skiff. A shared obsession with excellence. They come from opposite coasts — and opposite mindsets.
Nevin: creative, instinctive, a mentor at heart.
Ian: precise, relentless, the system that never breaks.
Opposites on paper, unstoppable on the water. Together, they’re redefining what teamwork means in the 49er — the fastest, fiercest boat in Olympic sailing.
Guided by Argentine Olympian Coach Klaus Lange, they’ve built a culture where pressure isn’t the enemy — it’s the plan. The duo trains at full professional pace, embracing pressure as fuel. The heartbeat of their campaign? A culture of grit, curiosity, and belief. Every setback becomes a lesson. Every challenge becomes fuel. Six days a week on the water. Months away from home. Everything on the line for Los Angeles 2028. Because for this team, it’s not just about chasing medals — it’s about setting a new standard for American sailing.
