Sam Davies - Motivational Speaker

© Sam Davies

SAM DAVIES is one of the world's most talented female offshore sailors.

The remarkable story of Sam's participation in the drama-packed 2008/09 edition of the Vendée Globe, in which more than half of the original fleet fell victim to the harsh, extreme sailing conditions showed Sam's strength, determination and level headed approach - a successful and winning formula.  Deep in the Southern Ocean, she diverted her course without hesitation to go to the aid of a fellow skipper who required assistance after breaking his leg.  In a savage squall, Sam was thrown across her yacht and knocked unconscious.  Sam's captivating and visual talks bring her ocean sailing experiences into the very heart of a room and draw on her positive mental attitude that is so key to her ability to achieve any goal no matter how large or small.  She demonstrates the need to enjoy and make the most of life's challenges in order to gain optimum motivation at all levels.

"Sam has been great at communications from on board and she's clever, modest and pretty. Sam's the complete package."

"On the outside she's blonde and leggy. On the inside she's a tough cookie."
