His Boat "LadyBird" |
He inspired young sailors to train hard and never give up until they had reached their goal. After his second Americas Cup when they won, a significant number of new sailors began to get involved with the sport. Sir Peter Blake also influenced the lives of the crew he was leading, they were inspired by his great leadership that helped them achieve many victories and they also became stronger people individually. Peter Blake also had a care for the environment and sailed around the South American Seas monitoring pollution and this inspired many people to take action and care for the environment because they could make a difference. There is a leadership award named after him now and it gives youth something to strive for in their sport, they look up to him as a role model.
