He was always ahead of his times. Or to rephrase it, Philippe Palu de la Barriere was always in time, while the others were behind. This ‘adventurous’ Frenchman took to sailing when his coaches found he was ‘too short’ to play football, went on to design sails and hydro-aerodynamic sailboats, and is now one of the world’s leading naval architects whose designs are futuristic.
Realising that his football dreams were never going to bloom Philippe joined Mazieres, a small sailing club close to his home in La Rochelle, a port city in Western France. “A month into it and I knew that this was my new sport. Soon, I was one of the five probable sailors for the National team for the Montreal Olympic Games (1976). Though I failed to make it to the Olympics I began to enjoy the sport,” says Philippe.
