Ben's outright professionalism is the key to his success. |
Day one was a bit of a disaster and to come back and win a gold after that was just unbelievable. I'm just so happy I was able to turn it around. |
I remember seeing those boats training and thinking |
I want to do my best for them, and I want to want to help the team do well in 2007, |

It's the best one yet - it's the fourth and it means a lot. |
It's the next step for someone like me who has come from small boats to try to make it into the America's Cup. It's the pinnacle of big boat sailing really. |
The organization is great, I liked the sailing centre but the race conditions were very difficult. I am very happy that I could cope with the wind and win. |
