Rosalin you are an huge inspiration to sailing and more importantly female sailors, I have never seen anyone who smiles as much as you do, good luck with your new adventure and keep smiling
I just adore Rosie!! So happy for her, and what an honor to skipper an incredible boat with a pretty awesome team!! Love Team Malizia and now because of Rosie a fan of Holcim PRB as well!! She is just incredible, her passion, heart and humor and joy of life! So happy for her!!
Danke für das tolle Interview, Rosie ist ein absolutes Naturtalent, sie hat eine so sympathische Persönlichkeit. Immer lächelnd und immer gut drauf. Man muss sie einfach mögen 🤗🤗🤗😎
Great interview with 2 fantastic personalities and answers as intelligent as questions. Delivers many precious insights even for non-sailors. All the best for Rosalin! 💪❤️
Rosalin is so engaging it is infectious. All of the accolades expressed by others here are bang-on. Rosalin is an inspiration. What is it with these Dutch women anyway? The world is fortunate to have Rosalin and Norlay [a.k.a. “Itchy Boots”] who rides an adventure bike, alone, on the worst possible roads all over the planet - always with a smile and loaded with grace. Thanks for showing us what is the best of the human condition. May their journeys continue to inspire.🙏☮️
Thank you for such a wonderful, honest interview and inviting us into your lives. Both of you make it look easy (when we know it's not), but did let slip part of the secret - keeping it fun. Rosie you are an amazing inspiration both on and off the water. Niall your interviewing skills are simply sublime. Keep it coming, both of you.
Great job Niall, fantastic interview of Rosie and a chance for us to get a bit inside her head. She is certainly a rising star, and yet comes across very grounded.
What a sailer, what a person, what a personality! And this reminds me of last year being in my van in the Clipper RTW parking lot doing my prep training to sail the Pacific Ocean. Well done landing a skipper post. All the best, Rosalin!
Rosalin confirm my belief that you have to be really sweet to be really tough.She has such a personality and trying to be honest in her answers to the questions makes her so likable.
This is the most real interview I had the honor to look at for the last decades. Rosalin, you are GREAT, I wish you all the best for your career, the future life and the upcoming challenges. BIG RESPECT!
Indeed, I salute Holcim PRB for their recognition of a true life force by selecting Rosalin as skipper of OR-EU 2025 and with Nico, too for Vende Globe. I am so thrilled to hear and watch Rosie tell us about all she is. Thanks, Niall & OR.
It seems an age since the Team Malizia round the world ocean race starring Rosie of course - thanks for giving us Rosie fans a reminder of😄 that fun time
Wonderful! Excellent interview, too. But, I want the camper van story! The job I wanted was working as a media person on the race. Malizia was a very special vibe.
We love Rosie. This is a great interview, thank you Niall and the Ocean Race. Rosie, we’ll be following your progress and feeding off your excitement and enthusiasm for sailing. Keep going.
What a wonderful interview between two great people who are both very, very good at their jobs. Well done! I look forward to more of, from and by Rosalin Kuiper!
Your beautiful and wise words about friendship and responsibility made me howl to the moon like a wulf, dear Rosie. I am proud to have the Netherlands as our neighbours... and you can`t represent it better, but by beeing the ' Flying Dutch(wo)man' , you are. Wonderful, totally in love again, this interview made my day ! Veel geluk en succes, lievde Rosi 🙂✨🤕🙃❣🏁🥇😉 P.S. ...and to Neil: send her an Email next time :)
Excellent interview - I'm amazed by all the things she keep on her plate - and that was before her happy announcement a month later 🙂 Wonder how her future looks now, but I'm sure she will manage.
I simply have to make a little declaration of love at this point. I don't know anyone who comes close to living and communicating their passion as positively and emotionally as Rosalin. This is by no means just about sailing from A to B as quickly as possible. Rather, it is about the way in which a small team can achieve extraordinary things. And also in areas that simply cannot be measured. Top performance without blind doggedness is an approach that is very difficult to find. Rosalin's smile can't leave anyone untouched ... that's impossible. I know that Rosalin will not just do a perfect job in her role as skipper ... she will be an absolute role model for all those who find themselves in this role from time to time ... like myself 😉 I have the highest respect for Rosalin, not only because she is without doubt one of the best sailors on this planet ... but because she obviously never forgets to smile despite all her professionalism ... @Rosalin If I was part of your team I would work my arse off for you ... and I would at least try to return your smile. @Niall: I would love to have a beer with you ... preferably downwind on a Class40 @20kn TWS 😉
Wow. What a wild interview and what wild stories. I guess nothing in the world tops buying a house while rounding cape horn after sailing the sourthern ocean on the longest ocean race leg and having been injured not too long before.
Kevin and Rosalin were the stars of the previous Ocean Race, they ganged up on Kevin so now Rosalin jumps to his boat. She has the personality and also the boat. Hope she wins.
Wonderful interview, thanks Niall and Rosie ❤. I laughed a lot during it. You are so funny, but also serious and with so important opinions. I wish you all the best and always good homecoming.❤
Fabulous interview and so insightful. In addition to sailing/racing I love motorcycling adventures and follow Noraly ‘itchy boots’ these two could be separated at birth. Great tenacity, positivity, determination and an inspiration to all who love adventure 👍 ⛵️ 🏍️
ThanXXX 4 the playlist…………… (remember the moment you came down from the mass totally exhausted : seems like you worked for where you are right now !!! )
Super Interview, can’t wait to see her as a skipper !! But sleepwalking on a Vendée globe ship 🥶🥶Imagine you wake up in the water and see your boat sailing away from you… 😱😱😱
Following you, Rosie and Nico, I do hope the boat can be fixed so the Vodee Globe is safe. Nico must be devastated in the New York Vendee. Missed seeing him sail into port!
Watching this after The Announcement I can't help but wonder how she's gonna juggle skippering the Ocean Race Europe and taking care of a little baby. 😅 But if anyone can it's our favorite Rosie. Best wishes again for everything! 💚
Good Interview! What a nice person, love her and respect her professional decisions. Anyway it's a strenge thing to switch from evironmentalist Malizia to environment destroyer Holzim (I'm living next to them).
G-day Rosie the answer to that question was I beleve when you got throwen out of your bunk in the middle of a wild storm when was actualy flying at over 35 knotts and skipping over monsterious waves in the southern Ocean enough to put most sailors in their place on shore but not our Rosie for she was up and at it and back at her post within a day or so she is one awsome lady in my book not I am writting bout I was there part of the way anyhow it was a rough sea but with her and the rest of some the drone footage they took was spectecular I am sure you who I am , I was one the dry land compaions on your going pass us downunder I glad to here you kept youself busy in your down time building a camper I would nothing less from you my friend good on ya from virtual fellow traveler james glad to see you with a new crew. Stay the right up I wish you flat seas and a fair wind much love 🌹☘️xx)❤️
Rosalin how interesting the life you have. I envy you so much. I live in America in Michigan and we share the last name and my ancestors came from the Netherlands. I wonder how I can follow your career. All the best Edward Kuiper. (82 years young)
What a great interview. Respectful and revealing. She is a force of nature. I feel honored to have been included.
What a personality, she's so lively ! How not to root for her. I wish you all the best Rosalin.
Rosalin you are an huge inspiration to sailing and more importantly female sailors, I have never seen anyone who smiles as much as you do, good luck with your new adventure and keep smiling
Thank you Niall, for this gift of a chat with Rosie!
possibly the most influential person to bring more young eyes on the sailing sport. bravo.
Thank god Niall is back! Now I know what we are missing on other sailing event media coverage. Great interview, thank you
I LOVE THIS INTERVIEW! One of the best sailors asked by the actual best (sailing) sports journalist! Thanks!
I just adore Rosie!! So happy for her, and what an honor to skipper an incredible boat with a pretty awesome team!! Love Team Malizia and now because of Rosie a fan of Holcim PRB as well!! She is just incredible, her passion, heart and humor and joy of life! So happy for her!!
Great interview with great persons. I smiled all the time.
Rosie is the best, can't wait to see her career shine!

I thought about normally as well 🙂

Tolles Interview. Rosi kann so lustig ihre Geschichten erzählen 😂🩵⛵
She's the best
Such a cool freakin' interview - with two of my fav people. OMG Rosie! You are a beautiful person!
At 36 min-‘Fly Captain’ Antoine? Unique drone talent. Any OBR whenever possible, much appreciated in all races we’ve followed.
Go bloody rose, go!
Chapeau Holly and Boris

Is there anyone on this planet who is as much fun as Rosi?
Good Interview! What a nice person, love her and respect her professional decisions. Anyway it's a strenge thing to switch from evironmentalist Malizia to environment destroyer Holzim (I'm living next to them).
Hup Holland, Hup Rosie 👍👍🥇🥇🌊🌊
Respect!
How did Team Malizia not hold on to her? The best combination of sailor and good PR you can get?!
Rosie the Rockstar! Now that she has the Skipper post, Holcim will break the record again.
Rosie, a rising star? My bottom! She's already a full blown Rock Star.❤
G-day Rosie the answer to that question was I beleve when you got throwen out of your bunk in the middle of a wild storm when was actualy flying at over 35 knotts and skipping over monsterious waves in the southern Ocean enough to put most sailors in their place on shore but not our Rosie for she was up and at it and back at her post within a day or so she is one awsome lady in my book not I am writting bout I was there part of the way anyhow it was a rough sea but with her and the rest of some the drone footage they took was spectecular I am sure you who I am , I was one the dry land compaions on your going pass us downunder I glad to here you kept youself busy in your down time building a camper I would nothing less from you my friend good on ya from virtual fellow traveler james glad to see you with a new crew.

Off-watch is back woohoo 🎉🙌
Ggoooo Rosi 😊
Rosalin should start a youtube channel
it's called STOKE
Rosie, I am a super fan of you. What is the playlist you like. Is it Just Vibes by Oisin Doyle?
44 minutes. No worries. You can’t get too much Rosie.
