Två givande veckor i USA har nu nått sitt slut 🇺🇸

Många dagar på vattnet och en hel del racing, även om vi gärna hade haft lite mer vind emellanåt. Men framför allt fick vi det vi kom hit för: nya erfarenheter, många lärdomar och chansen att utvecklas i en ny typ av båt.

Med både nya tillskott i teamet och en ny båt var det många bitar som skulle falla på plats på kort tid. Under första eventet hade vi flera starka stunder, men lyckades inte riktigt få ihop helheten.

Inför event två fick vi en ny chans och då började bitarna falla på plats. Efter en lite trevande start i RR jobbade vi oss in i det bra, blev starkare för varje match och lyckades hitta vår bästa segling när det verkligen gällde.

Det tog oss till final mot @riptideracingteam , men väl där fick vi efter tre riktigt tajta race till slut erkänna oss besegrade med en 2–1-förlust. Alltid lite surt när man är nära, men framför allt riktigt kul att känna utvecklingen vi gjorde genom eventen.

Vi lämnar USA med massor av lärdomar, en go känsla och mycket att bygga vidare på.

Framför oss väntar nu SM på hemmaplan i Långedrag. Snabb omladdning, tillbaka till FarEast och fullt fokus på att försöka försvara titeln från förra året! 💪⛵️

🥈 på @gkssmatchcupsweden !

Vilken vecka vi fick. Marstrand bjöd på förhållanden i världsklass och klipporna fylldes med mer folk för varje dag som gick.
Även om guldet var inom räckhåll och vi såklart ville mer, är vi otroligt tacksamma för veckan och allt stöd vi fick längs vägen. Tyvärr saknades det där lilla extra i år och det blev några misstag för mycket i finalen när det väl skulle avgöras. Så den här gången är det bara att gratulera @riptide_8209 med team som var det bättre laget i finalen.

Drömmen om att vinna lever dock vidare, så vi kommer tillbaka nästa år igen och hoppas på ännu mer publik på klipporna!

Stort tack till alla som stöttat oss under veckan, både på plats och på distans.
Tack också till organisationen och alla volontärer för ännu ett fantastiskt arrangemang.
Och sist men inte minst, tack till er som är med oss på hela resan och gör allt detta möjligt:

What an experience! 🇺🇸⛵️ We just finished our first-ever Congressional Cup (and Ficker Cup)!

While we didn’t quite get the results we were hoping for on the scoreboard, these past two weeks have been packed with fun, incredibly tight racing, and massive learnings for the team.

A huge thank you to everyone at @long_beach_yacht_club for putting on such a fantastic event. A very special shoutout to our incredible hosts, the Snow family – the way you open your home and welcomed us is truly unique. You made us feel right at home!

Also, a big thanks to @zakmerton and @severin_gramm for stepping in and putting up with us for a week! Looking forward to getting you back onboard soon.

Until next time, Long Beach! 👋

Great and fun week for the team in Macao during the season opener of the @worldmatchracingtour 🟥🪁

Unfortunately, we didn’t make it all the way to a win but came away with the silver! It feels a bit tough right now since we were really close, but overall we are taking a lot of positives away from the week. We definitely had one of our best sailing performances, and with a little distance we will be proud of our effort.

At the same time, there are certainly areas we need to develop and learn from. We will make sure to do just that to be able to come back even stronger for the upcoming events. And definitely try to peak for the Match Cup in Marstrand this summer.

Also, a huge thank you to everyone who supports us along the way and makes this possible!
