  • Barbara Kendall Boardsailing
    Olympic Education Barbara Kendall Boardsailing It was Christmas Eve 1974, and Barbara, her brother Bruce and her sister Wendy were snuggled down in their bunks on their old yacht Sunlight. While Wendy and Bruce drifted off to sleep, relaxed by the motion of the boat, 7-year-old Barbara waited, listening to the water lapping on the side of the boat and the murmur of her parents’ voices. “Where is he? When will he come?” wondered Barbara, still wide awake. From her bunk, she could only just see the outline of the boat’s mast, where Santa and his reindeer would come at midnight. She was determined to stay awake, but eventually the motion of the boat won and she drifted off to sleep. This kind of determination would drive Barbara all her life. Early years – dancing, sailing and windsurfing Barbara Kendall was born on August 30th 1967, the youngest of three children. Barbara and Bruce were fiercely competitive, while Wendy was the peace-maker. All three siblings loved the sea, and their boating holidays on board Sunlight were the highlight of each summer. Fit and full of energy, they spent their days sailing or mooring in a bay to surf and swim. They picnicked, went on bushwalks, and searched out isolated beaches and sand dunes. One summer, they even discovered a shipwreck. Barbara, Bruce and Wendy at Mercury Islands on a paddle board their father had made for them.
