The document proposes the formation of a Plymouth Consortium to promote the city as a center of maritime excellence. It outlines a plan with five key elements: public relations, civic support, academic involvement, social responsibility, and a physical home/governance structure. Five organizations would partner to deliver these elements and select representatives to develop a long-term strategy. The partners include Sam Goodchild Racing, Destination Plymouth, Plymouth University, the Royal Western Yacht Club, and Horizons Sailing Charity. The consortium aims to capitalize on Plymouth's history and assets to strengthen its reputation globally as Britain's Ocean City.

Plymouth's Path to Maritime Excellence
1.
2. PLYMOUTH TODAY
Plymouth is a developing city with a great Maritime
History. However to the rest of Britain and within the
sailing world it struggles to deliver a coherent message
about its assets and viability as a centre of maritime
excellence. Sam Goodchild Racing has offered the services
of its management team to head up a Plymouth
Consortium to put Plymouth back on the map of
International Maritime Excellence. This will run alongside
their own Vendee Globe 2016 Campaign.
3. In the ROOM tonight
There is a wealth of experience and talent that has never
had one place to discuss, develop and expand their
respective interests, innovations and skills to allow the
true potential of Plymouth to shine in a competitive world.
4. ïȘ We work with some of the best companies in the UK let that include you.
6. CLEAR VISION
To work with the existing skills and assets within the city
to build a team with a modern, professional outlook on
Sailing which can capitalise on its ability to call itself
BRITAINâS OCEAN CITY
7. GOOD PLAN
The plan is to build a consortium with FIVE KEY elements
PUBLIC RELATIONS : MEDIA IMPACT
VESTED INTEREST BY THE CITY
ACADEMIC INTEREST IN SUCCESS
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
A PHYSICAL HOME AND GOVERNANCE
8. Be Resilient
If this was going to be easy then we would not be here
tonight. We have a saying in Formula 1 . â If you have to
think about it, itâs too lateâ. The other major sailing host
cities are not going to take our efforts lying down. So
resilience by all is an important ingredient.
9. Be Determined
Endurance sports thrives on the word CANâT. There will be
many doubters but few achievers so determination will
sort out the people with passion about the Future of
Sailing in Plymouth and the people who just canât stay the
distance.
10. WHO WILL DELIVER
THE FIVE KEY ELEMENTS
Five key partners
Sam Goodchild Racing
Destination Plymouth
Plymouth University
Royal Western Yacht Club
Horizons Sailing Charity
11. Selection of Consortium members
Each Key partner will select two representatives.
With KNOWLEDGE and OPERATIONAL skills
They will then represent the partners with the clear
intention of developing a long term strategy and delivery
of a master plan for A Future in Sailing
12. SAM GOODCHILD RACING
Samâs role in the project is simple. Maintain the
momentum to achieve his goal of entering the 2016
Vendee Globe. Inspire young people to want to sail and
engage with their water environment. Be a good role
model and increase Plymouthâs synergy with Single â
handed racing worldwide.
13. Destination Plymouth
To work with the council to develop host city sailing
events that are on message , appropriate, on budget,
professionally run and strategically placed within the
International race calendar. Resource from the
consortium the skills that are needed to achieve this vision
and allocate relevant skills and budget to negotiate long
term assets and sponsorship acquisition for the city. Look
after the brand and what it stands for on the global stage.
14. Plymouth University
The University is the hub of innovation, education and the
capacity to link business, technology and the Future of
Sailing into major National and International centres. It will
bring rationale and alignment to an existing fragmented
message coming out of the city about its sailing ,
innovation and capacity to deliver at the sharp end.
15. Royal Western Yacht Club
Every project needs a physical home and a natural choice
for this is where the history and rule making of single
handed sailing is situated. We have an opportunity to
define the Wimbledon of sailing here in Plymouth. All
sport has a home or headquarters. This does not banish
other centres of sailing but it does give the outside world a
marker in the sand to understand the message coming out
of Plymouth. Also it is an asset that no other British port
has. USE IT
16. Horizonâs Sailing Charity
Horizon Sailing Charity gives us a âreality check â and feet
on the ground perspective to the whole project. When the
consortium loses its way in conversations of commercial
greatness and taking on the world of sailing. Horizonâs will
always define the roots of Plymouth and its history. Social
Responsibility is not an add-on . It is a necessity to the
principles of good practice.
17. Remember
History comes in different forms and has an impact on
peopleâs lives in many ways. Whether you served under
Blondie Hasler, were a seven year boy on Plymouth Hoe
when Chichester arrived in Plymouth or sailing to school
with Sam Goodchild in Grenada on a hot sunny morning. It
is the Future that counts and it in our hands
