LJ’s Racing

Hello to all LJ’s racing followers. If you are starting to feel that all the action coming up this year in Barcelona is at too far a reach, then look no further!

We are seeking support for our upcoming regatta Governors Cup. One way we are looking to fundraise is through the Kiwi cup. For every ticket you buy half of the cost will go to helping us get to LA. There are heaps of awsome prizes to be won with the grand prize valued at over $35,000. For us Governors Cup is one of the most important regattas on the calendar. Success from New Zealanders has proven far and wide at this great event and we hope to do the same.

Follow the links below for more information about the Kiwi cup and Governors cup. Remember when purchasing a ticket to put LJs racing

The team finished up 7th at the Warren Jones Regatta, whilst the results didn’t fall our way in the later stages of the regatta we have learnt so much about sailing these bigger foundation 36s. The team is looking forward to returning next year and building on this result

Last month the team competed at the 2023 Youth Match Racing World Championships. Whilst the team had a disappoint result finish 9th we continued to learn through out the event and narrowly missed out on the quarter finals through a complex count back. The team has had a good summer break and looking is looking forward to our next event the Warren Jones regatta in Perth. We’d like to thank our sponsors and Netlogix for there continued support

Big week of controlling the peak at Harken International warming up for youth worlds. After finishing second in the round robin, weve come home with 4th place. Tough last day in the office where we couldn’t quite peace it together, but coming in hot for worlds 🇳🇿⛵️🍻

Dangerous week to be a beer here in Pittwater 🍻. Great few days settling in, acclimatising & training. As you can see, jet lag has hit some of us worse than others 😴

Day 1 of Harken International kicks off today with a classic Sydney seabreeze & the team are fizzing. Follow the team on matchracingresults.com ⛵️

The team is proud to announce that we have qualified to represent New Zealand at the 2023 Youth World Championships in Sydney.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to and Netlogixs for supporting us on this journey as well as all of our training partners but in particular Sam and Josh who coached us over the event.
