Timeline
"You don’t have to be an aeronautical engineer to be a good sailor, but it helps me understand the dynamics of the sailing. For example, when the boat is moving the physics on the surface of the boat has to be re-defined again and again. I find that much of what I learned at the Technion can, in some way, be applied to sailing and has helped me make [fewer] mistakes."
