It's been a hectic few months from our sponsored sailors, with events, regattas, and championships filling their calendars - and we're ready to shout about it.
From world-class performances to intense training blocks, our athletes have been pushing boundaries across the UK and beyond.
August marks the perfect moment to check in with the squad, celebrate their recent achievements, and give you a glimpse into what's coming next.
Here's a look at where our sailors have been this summer:
First up, we have Harry Mills, who is in the final stretch of preparation for the J/24 World Championships.
With the Worlds just a few weeks away, Harry has been balancing a busy training schedule on and off the water. His focus has been sharpening manoeuvres, sail trim, and working with his team to fine-tune boat handling in heavy fleet racing conditions.
The J/24 Worlds is known for its high-level competition, and Harry is no stranger to the demands of international racing. As the countdown begins, we're excited to back Harry and his crew as they aim for top results on the global stage.
Stay tuned, as we'll be following Harry closely during the event.
Over in the high-speed world of foiling catamarans, Julian has been representing the team at the UK A-Class Catamaran Nationals. This event brought together some of the fastest solo sailors on foiling A-Cats, with high stakes and even higher speeds.
Julian delivered a solid event performance, battling through tricky breeze and tidal conditions. His debrief mentioned consistent improvements through the series, especially with foil transitions and upwind modes. While the fleet was incredibly tight, Julian's final standing reflected his hard work and technical improvements this season.
The A-Class Nationals has been a key stepping stone in Julian's foiling campaign, and we're looking forward to seeing what's next for him on the European circuit.
Meanwhile, Freddie Sunderland has taken his campaign international, currently based in Los Angeles, USA. While Freddie's visit is multi-purpose, it's very much a working trip - combining training sessions with local fleets and tuning up for major upcoming regattas.
Freddie has been working with US-based coaches and has been immersing himself in the West Coast sailing scene. From light-wind tactical drills to fast-paced harbour racing, he's been soaking up every opportunity to level up his racing game.
We'll be keeping in close touch with Freddie during his LA stint as he prepares for his next key events on both sides of the Atlantic.
Rebecca Knock has been in action at her National Championships this week, with racing kicking off from Saturday, August 2nd.
Rebecca has been in fine form this season, and her focus going into Nationals was all about consistency across the fleet.
Nationals week is always a highlight of the summer calendar, and Rebecca has been facing off against a strong fleet of seasoned competitors. Early reports from the boat park suggest tight racing and shifting conditions - exactly the kind of challenge Rebecca thrives on.
We'll be bringing a full event summary once results are finalised, but we couldn't be prouder to see Rebecca flying the flag at Nationals with such determination.
Another of our young talents, Noah Sauven, recently wrapped up his own Nationals campaign. Noah has been climbing the ranks in his fleet, showing impressive boat speed and tactical maturity beyond his years.
Nationals week saw Noah battle through variable conditions, with a mix of light airs and solid breeze testing every sailor's adaptability. Despite some tough shifts and competitive starts, Noah delivered a standout performance with top-10 finishes in several races.
His Nationals result is a testament to his hard work and focus this season, and we're looking forward to supporting Noah as he builds on this momentum heading into the Autumn series.
One of the standout performances of the season comes from Sam Blaker, who claimed an incredible 2nd Place at the RS Aero World Championships.
Sam has been a consistent contender in the Aero fleet, and this result cements his position as one of the top international sailors in the class. The Worlds fleet was stacked with elite talent, and Sam's consistency across the week was key to his podium finish.
From breezy downwind blasts to light-wind tactical battles, Sam showcased the full range of his skills, keeping the pressure on the leaders right up until the final race. His silver medal finish is a huge milestone, and we're absolutely thrilled to see his hard work pay off.
Really good selection of rope sizes, delivered speedily. Great idea to put the offcuts to good use. Caused a few laughs when people realised what I'd ordered ;-)
The sales team were quick responding to our questions, dispatched to us promptly, and the product is a perfect replacement for our old tiller which ended up at the bottom of a lake!
Love the fact they don’t leak.
You do need to squeeze to get liquid out. Which is so much better. Don’t lose liquid etc.
nice size and robust
Great for when it’s not too cold. But is windy and wet. Needing to stay dry on top.
Very easy to install. May need some additional sealing for complete water-tightness.
It was time for me to upgrade to a newer Ilca and it was recommended that I get a Devoti. The price was competitive and the service from Andrew and his team was fantastic. I received lots of communication and the boat was delivered to me within 2 weeks. It is really great that Sailing Chandlery take the time to set up the rigging so that you can get straight on the water. I am very pleased with my new boat and am loving sailing it. Thank you Sailing Chandlery!
Excellent fit for a topaz. Great service on collection.
Perfect
Love this bag. Great wet area within it as well.
Excellent to use as for a birthday gift to family members keen on sailing
Currently 2 weeks into an Eastern Mediterranean trip with these shoes. Grip is great and they drain really well. Comfort is brilliant… as long as you take the right size. I followed the measurement guidelines and they work well. Highly recommend shoe!
Quick despatch and a good quality product. Moves smoothly along the boom.
Ordered a dyneema RSAero halyard on the Thursday. It arrived by mid day on the Friday and was used on the Saturday. Excellent product and service. Thank you
Reeves really easily, jams well and excellent grip
I bought the burgee and clip for a Hartley 12 and found downwind sailing much easier single handed. The clip came with the screws so it was a 10 minute job including dropping the mast. Website worked well again and the items were delivered quickly so a good job all round.
