#429: Lutz Kohne // Golden Globe Manager turned Racer


Sailing was never a part of Lutz Kohne’s life growing up — it hit him square in the face as an adult, and completely changed his trajectory. He has since worked as a professional skipper, as Race Director for the OGR and the GGR, and he is now preparing to set sail himself, around the world, solo, retro and unassisted as a participant in the Golden Globe Race 2026.

Thanks to our long-time friends at Forbes Horton Yachts for presenting this season of ON THE WIND! Learn more about Forbes at: https://forbesyachts.com/


ON THE WIND is also presented by Harborburn Cannon Co., brought to you by the founders of 59º North Sailing. Harborburn was born of an idea by a group of sailing friends looking for a way to add some fun onboard our boats. We figured “if you own a boat, you need a cannon!”
