Ryan Breymaier is the most prominent and successful USA short-handed offshore sailor on the ocean racing circuit today.
Born and raised in Maryland, Ryan studied and sailed at St. Mary’s College where he developed his passion for competitive yacht racing. Determined to succeed, he pursued his professional sailing career first on a number of American programs before relocating to France to immerse himself in offshore racing. He quickly started to work and compete on the coveted IMOCA circuit and skippered/raced on many accomplished campaigns.
Sailing is a growing market in the business of sports sponsorship. As a title sponsor of international ocean racing, we at Hugo Boss have a skipper with whom we are able to achieve fantastic global press coverage, both print and broadcast.
