About
Team Pindar
Team Pindar is one of the world’s leading independent sailing teams.
Since the company’s first ever sports sponsorship of The North Sea Yacht Race in 1980, Pindar has become one of the most established names in sailing. Best known for its sponsorship of Emma Sanderson (née Richards) in the 2002-03 Around Alone Race, Pindar has supported sailing campaigns across every level, ranging from grass roots and local community projects through to match racing and global offshore events at the very pinnacle of the sport.
Most recently, Brian Thompson sailed the revolutionary Pindar Open 60 to fifth place in the solo, round-the-world yacht race, the Vendée Globe in February 2009. The Team’s sailing programme sponsors reigning World Match Racing Champion Ian Williams.
