Former Olympic sailing champion Polly Powrie has been appointed the new High Performance Operations Manager for the organisation and will be working alongside 2008 boardsailing champ Tom Ashley.
Powrie says it's accidental.
She says it was probably a bit of a coincidence in terms of timing but she has a lot of respect for Ashley and what he's done and is looking forward to working alongside him.
Powrie will take over the new role on Monday.
