A finish line well earned. ⛵🌬️
Race 2 tested every crew that headed out, and these boats were still charging towards the finish after a long day in demanding conditions. With 38 finishers, every boat crossing the line was a testament to determination, preparation, and great seamanship.
One race remains in the Lewmar Triple Series, and we can’t wait to see everyone back on the start line on 5 September for the series finale.

After a thrilling race yesterday were you itching for even more?!
Hear from Harri Wren, Damon Jolliffe and Ben Roff about what it takes to get a yacht round the North Island two handed, the ins-and-outs of mastering shorthanded sailing, and how to get involved with the fleet.
You’ll hear all the stories including the gnarly stuff, and the sunshine and rainbow moments.
This one is guaranteed to be a mix of information and humour!

Hi Tom off of WASABI, Just asking for a friend, is it within the rules to fly a non hanked head sail from a bow sprit with a spinnaker pole? We jibed our J5 down to passage rock and the boat that beat us on handicap ran straight to the mark using the above set up (see tracker) This looks like a great option if it’s within the rules but a sertain boat was penalised in the last Sydney - Hobart so we thought it would be a NO NO ?
It was wet, wild, and windy, with only a third of the fleet braving the elements for our amended courses.
The forecast proved spot on, thanks to PredictWind, with some boats recording gusts of over 40 knots. Congratulations to everyone who took on the challenge, gave it their best, and especially to those who crossed the finish line—an outstanding achievement in some seriously tough conditions.
With Race 2 now complete, there's just one race left in the Lewmar Triple Series. We can't wait to see you all back on the start line on 5 September as we finish the series with a bang!
