Ficker Cup 2024 👊 This regatta has been on our list of ‘must dos’ for a while, and this year we were lucky enough to get an entry one week out from the event! The girls rallied and got to Longbeach for a few days of sailing in the Catalina 37s. We are super proud of how we sailing, although not super proud of the result….. Huge thanks to the girls for joining us, onwards and upwards for 2024 👯‍♀️ Thanks for having us ! Photo credit

🤩 Bermuda!

With Tropical Storm Philippe on the way over the island, the race committee had to make an early decision to drop the repechage and go straight to quarter-finals. That meant that after the round robin, our regatta was complete.

It was beautiful sailing conditions for us and the racing we had was close! We really enjoyed sailing the IODs and learning the venue - hopefully we’ll be able to build on it next year. 🙌

While racing is postponed and the tropical storm rolls through, we’re able to see a bit of the island on our handy scooters. Scroll to see the gremlins in their natural habitat. 🛵🏝️

☀️Day One of the Bermuda Gold Cup done! After a morning of practice yesterday, we got into racing the iconic IODs today in the beautiful, although shifty at times, weather.

We’re enjoying learning the boats and the venue, and the racing has been incredibly tight - testing what we’ve learned over the year! We are stoked to be here racing against the best.

We’re definitely only racing sailboats and not scooters.

Bring on day two!!

🤍 And just like that, the 2023 Women’s World Match Racing Tour has come to a close! As a team, we competed in the US, France, and Denmark with the Tour this year. 🥈We finished 2nd overall, sharing the podium with Sweden’s WINGS and New Zealand’s 2.0 Racing - some of our closest competitors throughout! 🇸🇪🇳🇿

We’ve had the most fun along the way and want to say a huge thank you to race organisers, hosts, volunteers, and WWMRT’s James Pleasance for all of the work to make these events happen.

But wait. There’s more! Up next - Bermuda Gold Cup☀️
