In this photo provided by Sail GP are Nina Curtis, left, and Lisa Darmanin, right, posing with helmsman and CEO Tom Slingsby at Sydney Harbour Wednesday, April 7, 2021, in Australia. Four years ago, the closest Australian Olympic sailing medalists Darmanin and Curtis could get to the America's Cup was by taking jobs in a hospitality lounge on site in Bermuda. They'll be back in Bermuda in just a few days, this time with the defending champion Australian team in SailGP as part of a developmental program designed to fast-track the inclusion of women into the global league.

This photo provided by SailGP shows Australia SailGP skipper Tom Slingsby in Sydney, Australia on Feb. 6, 2021. The women sailed WASZP one-person foiling dinghies, giving Slingsby the chance to assess their potential ability on the 50-foot foiling catamarans used in SailGP. Slingsby said. "There's a lot of training ahead. We've seen some amazing male sailors who have been dropped out of SailGP because they just couldn't keep up. By no means is it going to be easy, but I just think it's great to give them the opportunity for them to come and live and train with team and see what it's all about and then if they're good enough, they'll make it."
