Day 2 is done and dusted. Jablonski leads the way with nine wins and two losses, great to chat with him in English and Polish. Was definitely a dramatic day, with more than a few broaches, and a mast breakage. Catch my chat with David Gilmour on just what happened in his match against Williams, while you watch the action unfold! Enjoy, Sailor Girl xx
A big thanks to www.tvp.pl for their on water…
All of the action from day 1 of Energa Sopot Match Race, on and in the water… Intrigued…?

Hansen leads the way after day one of qualifying with five from six wins, but there are four teams…

Comanche training on Sydney Harbour as the 18ft Skiffs rig in the background… Too awesome! Thanks Michael Chittenden
I have now been in Europe for a little over six weeks… And while I know it is freezing at home in Sydney (hope all the adventurers at home are making the most of the awesome snow!), it is also a rainy and cold Sunday here in the UK!

24 hours
11 July 2015
There is something about sailing that draws people from all walks of life, perhaps it is the speed, the exotic locations, or just the challenge of it all. For me it is the challenge of man and machine against Mother Nature with all her might and ferocity. And atop all sailing endeavors is the infamous 24 hour record, a testament to the ability, skill, athleticism, and engineering that allows us to…

On return to the 2012 Olympic venue there were quite a few sailors out to prove to the masses, as much as themselves that they have what it takes to take Goldat the next venue.
