My name is Johan Barne. I live in Gothenburg, Sweden and work as both a professional sailor and IT consultant. I have a long history of Olympic class sailing and sailing on the World Matchracing Tour. After spending 10 years with teams involved in big projects such as The Volvo Ocean Race and the America's Cup, I have more and more worked with independent sailing teams at the highest level.

These big project teams in the modern era have become very technologically advanced. While working for them and also independently, I have been specialising in software development and performance analysis. Throughout the years I have developed several systems for performance analysis and development. The main focus has been to make advanced systems which are user-friendly and readily available to everyone involved at all times.

This web site is mainly dedicated to present my services as professional sailor as well as the Extensive Performance Analysis Software Package I have developed. I am currently doing performance analysis using this system on TP52:s Ran and Powerplay, IRC72' Ran, RC44 No Way Back, Wally J-One and more. Just recently I did the performance analyisis for the spanish Volvo Ocean Race project "Team Telefonica".

Maybe you want to be the next sailing project to benefit from me and the technology I have developed? Well, then you've come to the right place. Take a look around and if you like what you see, contact me!

Cheers,

Johan Barne
