He is quite possibly America’s most influential sailor over the past decade, quite definitely the smartest man in the sport, and one of our all-time favorite people, and we’re stoked to share the news that Stan Honey been named the recipient of the 2016 Magnus Olsson Prize. Honey is just the third recipient of the prize named for one of sailing’s most beloved characters; he joins Torben Grael and Ben Ainslie in the honor.
Stan talks about what it means to him to join their company in the name of ‘Mange’ in a characteristically humble piece on the Mange Foundation’s site here. Congratulations to a true gem of a sailor and a lion of a man.
