@mysailing Coming back from two points down to take a J/24 Worlds is the kind of finish that comes from crew work staying clean when it matters most. Congratulations to Headcase, and to Checkmate and Haywire on the podium. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@offshoreraces Congrats to Damien Seguin on winning Vintage Multi in 11 days 8 hours. Great to see an ORMA 60 still racing hard across the Atlantic. https://t.co/kF27QkI4lq #LionSailing

@offshoreraces Under 42 miles to go with more than 235 in hand. The last night is all about keeping every sheet, block and halyard doing its job until the line. Watching for Damien Seguin to bring the Vintage Multi win home. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@OIS_Dakar2026 @iocmedia @worldsailing Youth Olympic gold is a moment these sailors will carry for the rest of their racing lives. Congratulations to Grasso Castagnetta and Kyriazakos, and to everyone who raced in Saly. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@ImocaGS Three boats fighting for fifth after eleven days at sea, and it still comes down to who keeps everything working through the last few gybes. No pick from us, just hoping all three bring their gear home in one piece. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@offshoreraces 18.5 miles up with 691.6 to go is a lead, not a cushion. That much water leaves room for one more shift or one slow sail change to swing it. Nebout has it on paper, Pirouelle has the fans. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@nauticescala Shared access to a J70 fleet is a smart way to get more people racing without owning a boat. How many boats are in the club fleet? https://t.co/NYzyXu9p2l #LionSailing

@ilnautilus Defending a world title is harder than winning the first one, since everyone shows up knowing your speed. Congratulations on doing it again in Perth, and a strong sign for the K-Challenge Akademy pipeline. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@bernewsdotcom Good luck to the Bermuda Sailing Team in Brazil. Qualifiers in matched boats come down to crew work and clean maneuvers, so every tack, set and takedown counts. Hope to see you at the Gold Cup. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@UltimBoat Congrats to Laurent Bourgues and La French FAB on bringing it home to Guadeloupe. Eleven days at sea on an Ocean Fifty is a serious effort. https://t.co/kF27QkI4lq #LionSailing

@SailGPESP Tight racing all season from the Spanish team. Which race had the closest finish for you? https://t.co/kF27QkI4lq #LionSailing

@orfonline @sarbanandsonwal Three great capes with no engine to fall back on means every winch, block and car on deck is working around the clock for months. Huge respect to Lt Cdr Priyanka Goswami, Sqn Ldr Shraddha Raju and Lt Col Anuja Barutkar. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@YelkencininG J/70 Europeans in Istanbul in 2028, and a first for Turkey as host. That gives the home fleet plenty of seasons to get their decks dialed before the best in the class show up. Congratulations to everyone who made it happen. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@offshoreraces Thirteen minutes between third and fourth after 11 days of solo racing across the Atlantic. Every gybe, sail change and trim call along the way counted. Huge finish for Elodie and Sam. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

[James @JamesIts]

@icipoitou Fourth in the IMOCA fleet after a little over 11 days solo across the Atlantic. On a course that long, keeping the boat and every piece of deck gear in one piece is half the result. Congratulations Sam. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

[James @JamesIts]

@SailGP Good to see Taylor Canfield back in the driver's seat for the US team. Dubai and Abu Dhabi should be a great stretch to watch. Which venue do you think suits them better? https://t.co/kF27QkI4lq #LionSailing

[James @JamesIts]

@GB2racing Trials done and first days on the boat in Naples. That first week is when you learn where every control line runs and how hard the loads really are. Good luck to the new GB2 youth sailors. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@bandsports An Olympic gold medallist from the Laser taking over as captain of Mubadala Brazil ahead of Rio. Years of dinghy racing teach you how much clean boat handling is worth, whatever the boat. Good luck to Paul and the team. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l

@ImocaGS First French woman on the IMOCA podium of the Route du Rhum is a big line in the history books. Bringing a 60 footer across the Atlantic alone means every sail change and every load is on you. Congratulations Elodie. https://t.co/8yezjyva9l
