Newport. Complete. 🧡

20 teams. 10 races. Five days of racing in a fleet of identical IC37s at the inaugural NYYC Women’s International Championship.

We arrived in Newport as a new combination, in a new boat, racing together for the first time.

And we kept building.

As Katie Spithill said, “Our biggest win as a team is we never made the same mistake twice.”

The result: 5th overall, and the highest-placed team from outside North America.

But this campaign was about more than the result.

For co-founder Stacey Jackson, it’s about what comes next: “We want to keep creating opportunities for female sailors to come together and compete at the highest level.”

None of it happens without the partners, supporters, friends and family who backed the team and the vision, and helped make Newport possible.

And this is another important step in the process of building our team and our mission.

The journey continues. 🧡

FIFTH OVERALL! 🧡🇦🇺

Shaw and Partners Women Racing finishes the inaugural NYYC Women’s International Championship in 5th overall and as the first non-North American boat.

What a week.

So many learnings, so much growth and a team that just kept getting better as the regatta went on, finishing the final day with a third and a second*.

We are incredibly happy with what we achieved here in Newport, but we also know how much we left on the table.

And perhaps that’s the most exciting part.

This is another chapter in what we’re building. There’s plenty more to come. 💪🏻🧡

SECOND* IN THE FINAL RACE! 👏🏻👏🏻🧡

What a way to finish.

Another brilliant race from the team, crossing the line in second in Race 10 to close out the inaugural NYYC Women’s International Championship in Newport.

After a week of learning, building and finding our rhythm in the IC37, the team saved another of their best performances for the final race.

A third in Race 9. A second* in Race 10. One very strong finish to the week. 💪🏻🧡

*Second across the line, with a one-point penalty applied for the pole.

Final results to come!

THIRD IN RACE 9! 👏🏻👏🏻🧡

Another strong race from the team, crossing the line in third and continuing our climb up the leaderboard on the final day in Newport.

We are currently waiting to see whether conditions will allow for further racing today.

Regardless, we are now 6th overall, with plenty still to play for. Whether that’s more racing today or what comes next for this team, there’s plenty more ahead 💪🏻🧡

NO RACING TODAY 🌊

After 6.5 hours on the water waiting for an opportunity to race, the fleet heads back to the dock without a race completed.

We hear from main trimmer Sarah Parker on the day and what comes next.

There’s a change to the schedule for tomorrow, with the first race now set for 9:30am and the potential for four races.

With plenty of points still on the table, there’s lots of movement possible on the scoreboard.

One more day. Plenty still to play for. Let’s go team! 💪🏻🧡
