Finished off the ISAF sailing world cup in Hyeres in 18th place. Another solid result to confirm my Australian  Sailing qualification for next year. Now in Lake Garda Italy for some time off and to concentrate on getting fit and healthy for the next 2 regattas.

Had a great day out on the water today in the 15 knot breeze. Finished the day with a 8th and a 1st. Moved up the overall results from 45th to 26th. The plan is to keep charging up the leader board over the next 2 days.

The last day of the qualifying series today brought some more light shift conditions. The wind was between 5-10 knots and very choppy. I got 2 solid results to finish in gold fleet. Got a lot of work to do to make it a respectable result but the next few days a bringing a lot more wind.

The first day of the ISAF sailing world cup in Hyeres brought 2-6 knots of very shifty wind. This made it seriously hard to be consistent and it was a day that I would like to forget. Tomorrow is another day and is the last day of the qualifying series. One more final push to get a good spot going in to finals.

After a solid training block in Hyeres there is now only one day left till the final ISAF world cup event for the calender year. Can't wait to get out there and start racing

There are currently lots of opportunities for sponsorship. If you are interested in your companies name on either me or my boat it will be seen at every event that I go to. Please do not hesitate to contact me. ( mattwearnsailing@gmail.com )

After the solid result in Palma I have moved up to 4th in the ISAF world rankings.

Finished Palma off in 6th. Very solid result for the first regatta for the year. Now for the 6 day cycle camp.

Had a very solid day today. Got a 9 and a 10 today to finish the finals series in 6th. Two medals races tomorrow which are double points so anything could happen. Looking forward to it.

Finished qualifying off with a 16 and a 5 in the light to moderate winds. Looking forward to gold fleet which starts today. The weird new system means that I am only on 5 points after the 6 races because I am in 5th. Lets see how it works out.

The second day of the ISAF world cup in Palma Brought 10-20 knots. These seem to be my conditions as I finished the day with a 2nd and a 1st. This has put me in 3rd overall. Some lighter winds tomorrow will be a nice change.

Ended the first day of racing with a 3 and a 6. Made some mistakes in the second race which cost me a lot but still very happy to have proved that I am strong in the wind. Great solid start and looking forward to the days of racing to come.
