This week we talk about how to grow sailing. We talk to Malcolm Page, former club sailor, former Olympian, Gold medallist and World Champion and now CEO of Australian Sailing. Mal has just spent weeks meeting with clubs around Australia. We asked the key messages he received, and what ideas and goals Australian Sailing formulated. There were several key discussion points. If you love sailing, wherever you are based in the world and want to see it grow, this episode will resonate with you. Enjoy.

Also, we want to share the link to support the Australian Youth team heading to the Youth Worlds. https://asf.org.au/campaigns/australian-sailing-limited/2025-australian-youth-sailing-world-championships-team

This week we discuss the iconic Australian sailing class The Sharpie. The Sharpie is a fantastic class that is very popular. The combination of a three person crew, close racing, fun regattas and affordability make it very appealing. And with their Nationals in Port Lincoln and each of us having sailed them, we couldn't resist. It was a lot of fun. Enjoy!
