Description
The Pre-World Championships draw skilled sailors from around the world, all competing fiercely to refine their strategies and improve their boat performance ahead of the main World Championships. Supported by Rolex, a brand that champions excellence in sailing, this event showcases some of the finest talent in the sport.
The Farr 40 class is celebrated for its strict one-design regulations, ensuring that all boats are identical in design and equipment. This creates a level playing field that emphasizes the sailors’ skill over the advantages of different boat designs.
I recall the day vividly; the swell was enormous, and while I was prepared with a seasickness tablet, many of my fellow media members were not so fortunate. The fierce competition spurred me to capture as many yachts as possible despite the rough seas making it challenging to stay upright. Just when I thought I’d missed my chance, the yachts clustered together for a fleeting moment, allowing me to capture this perfect frame.
This photograph not only captures the thrill of competitive sailing but also commemorates a unique event in Sydney’s rich maritime history.
