Going into the 1984 Summer Olympics, Scott chose to train in Corpus Christi, TX with US training partners as well as the New Zealand Olympic entry, Bruce Kendall (eventual winner of 2 Olympic Medals, Bronze '84, Gold '88). Although not favored to win Medals, both Scott (Silver) and Bruce (Bronze) proved that their training together produced Olympic Medals! Afterwards, Scott worked closely in a variety of ways with Mistral Windsurfing, did advertising campaign's for Chanel and others as well as becoming a consultant coach for upcoming Olympic aspirants. He tried a comeback for another Olympics, doing well by finishing 2nd at the 1987 Pre-Olympics in Pusan, Korea but in the 1988 US Olympic Trials, he did not qualify and instead coached the US representative (an eventual Bronze Medalist), Mike Gebhardt, at the 1988 Summer Olympics. Scott continued to coach for US Sailing (whenever possible) while also working with Mistral through the early 90's. His life revolved around helping the US team and himself prepare for the upcoming Olympic Games, and competed in the 1990 Goodwill Games (as the US representative) finishing with another Silver Medal. He was recognized that year for his Sportsmanship in the event whereby he witnessed for the eventual Gold Medalist from Poland. He earned US Sailing's Van Alan Clark Sportmanship Award (for all sailors), as well as being nominated for the Jack Kelly Fair Play and James Sullivan award (for all US athletes). Later in his third quadrennium, Scott went to another Pre-Olympic competition against the World's best and finished with another 2nd place finish (1991 Barcelona- site of the 1992 Summer Olympics). The 1992 US Trials (Ft. Pierce, FL) proved to be a highly competitive event that Mike Gebhardt would eventually win. Mike would finish with a Silver in the Barcelona Olympic Games. After those years and Scott began having children, while he coached the Georgetown University Sailing Team in the 90's, worked for Vanguard Sailboats from 1997-2007 then after a brief stint wholesaling sails, entered retail sail making with Ullman Sails. He continues to coach sailing, helping sailors of all levels! Early life Son of Navy Captain Marshall K. Steele Jr and Elsie (Miller) Steele, Scott was born at the Newport, RI Naval Hospital prior to moving to Annapolis, MD. In Annapolis, he lived on the Naval Academy grounds in the Captain quarters from age 2-10 prior to his father retiring from the Navy
