Adventures of a Sailor Girl #13

6 July 2014
So many adventures, and the weekend is just not enough time to squeeze them all in! Great to catch up with Australia’s newest World Champs, Jesse Dobie and Adrian Fawcett, who took out the F16 Worlds in Newport last week. We managed to wake Jason Waterhouse up on the morning of his next regatta. He will be on the water with Lisa Darmanin on the Nacra this week, after wrapping up his first A…

Adventures of all-sorts!

30 June 2014
This week I was so lucky! Not only did I get to chat with some amazing adventurers on the show, I also had a little escape from Sydney! In celebration of losing old shackles and deciding to dedicate myself 110% to Sunset Media my absolutely incredible parents flew me to Thredbo for the day to ski with them! This week I broadcast once I was home from the snow, including news from the 8 Metre Euros…

Creating legends

15 June 2014
This week I raced on Zippier again, my favourite Thompson 8 class boat, and I had such a blast with the rest of the crew. Thanks to having a bit more free time I have been able to do a bit more sailing with the team this winter, which is lovely. I’ve known the team for quite a long time but haven’t really had the time to sail consistently with them, until this season. We raced in the CYCA…

Winter is here, and I made good use of my drysuit this weekend at Wangi for the Zhik Winter Regatta! This week we were very privileged to have a special guest on the show. It was absolutely fantastic to catch up with Duncan MacGregor, a Paralympic aspirant who actually competes in not only disabled, but also able-bodied sailing. Duncan is an amazing ambassador for our sport, and we were so lucky…

Massive!

1 June 2014
Radio show number 8, one of my lucky numbers! I managed to catch Jason Waterhouse straight from Austria at the GC32′s at 2am this morning – too awesome! With his team, skippered by Sebastian Cole, they had two bullets just before I spoke to him. Great to hear that all is going well for this dedicated cat sailor. I also chatted with Howie Hamlin on his 5o5 North Americans win, and Stacey…
