Scott Lawson and David Ferguson, co-owners of the Melges IC 37 Mittere, discuss their new boat, what they like about it and their generous loan to the Australian Women Racing teams for training prior to them competing at the NYYC Women’s International Championship in Rhode Island this September.

Mina discusses her selection for the Women Racing RSYS team at the NYYC Women’s International Championship in Rhode Island and Jack talks about sailing on the Melges IC 37 and his experience as part of the Women & Youth America’s Cup challenge in 2024 and sailing at HIRW last year as part of the 49er demonstration.

During Race Week we caught up with Bruce Taylor who was sailing on David Currie’s Farr 40 Ponyo. Sadly, they lost the top of their mast early in the regatta. He talked about plans for sailing at Magnetic Island Race Week and also about an important milestone that will come up for three of his Chutzaph crew in the 2027 Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race.

The final day of the regatta was sailed in modest breezes, flat seas and bright blue skies.

Crosbie wraps up the regatta and runs through the provisional results for the various divisions.

Under clear blue skies, the IRC Division 1 and 2 fleets headed out for another day of racing, setting the scene for more action on the water.

The IRC Racing Class completed two windward leeward races today starting at the Eastern course under blue skies but still strong winds.

Crosbie Lorimer gives you a brief overview of the first three days of racing and what lies ahead.

Over three solid days of strong breezes there was plenty of action and water on the decks of the fleet.

We spoke to Peter Wrigley - the co-owner with Andy Kearnan of the extensively campaigned TP 52 Koa - about their day on the water after another breezy outing on Day 2 of Hamilton Island Race Week 2026.

It’s been a very busy 12 months for Australian sailor Stacey Jackson - and the next 12 months looks just as busy! We caught up with Stacey dockside after Day 2 of Hamilton Island Race Week fresh from a breezy race aboard Greg Watson’s HH42 Touche 42. We talked to Stacey about Race Week, the upcoming Women’s International Competition at New York Yacht Club (David Ferguson and Scott Lawson, generously loaned their ILC 37 Mittere to both Australian teams for training) and the Jolt team’s planned reprise of last year’s win at next year’s Admiral’s Cup.

Crosbie Lorimer provides a taste of typical post race dockside atmosphere at Hamilton Island Race week- Day 2.

Following the recent passing of acclaimed sailor Gordon Ketelbey, Crosbie Lorimer reflects on his achievements over the past year and the many accolades he received. Shane Guanaria, a close friend of Gordon’s, also shares his memories of Gordon and his legacy.
