This week we focus in on the Melbourne to Osaka Race, A 5,500 mile doublehander race. It starts in March in Melbourne and races north through the Pacific to Osaka in Japan. It's the 9th edition of the race which is held usually every 4 years. We reached out to one of our great mates Paul Schulz. He is going again after competing for the first time in 2018. Schulzy gives us all the background on the race. We hope you enjoy it.

This is a massive episode, but it is so good. We celebrate Australia Day by talking to one of the US's greats - Bill Hardesty. Former World Champion in the J/70, Etchells, Melges 20, Melges 24, Farr 40, and match racing. He was also the 2011 U.S. “Yachtsman of the Year”. We talk about his journey, and the Etchells Worlds that just happened. We also rip into the Ineos/Ainslie Cup news, our new Vaikobi UV sun shirts, Vendee, Give you the inside gossip on SailGP in NZ, the RORC Transatlantic, plus so many more events.

It's a busy time of year in the Southern Hemisphere. There are so many sailing regattas happening right now. We try and discuss as many as we can and talk about all the different boats out there. It is a pretty enjoyable episode.

We wanted to talk 5oh and Etchells Worlds, so we thought lets get a person doing both. Sandy is currently fighting for first place at the 505 Worlds and will be sailing with BP at the Etchells Worlds, so he was the perfect guest.

The Australian Sabot Championships are underway at Drummoyne Sailing Club in NSW. The Sabot is a popular junior class in Australia. Many of its past National champions are now some of the top sailing pros in the World. It is always interesting to hear what the youngsters think about our sport, so given we are a sponsor of the event, we asked for volunteers. The discussion was short but sweet and certainly insightful. We enjoyed it, we hope you do as well.

We focus in on the Hobart again. After Tony Mutter and Law Connect last week, this week it is James Mayo and Master Lock Comanche. James is the man, along with Matt Allen, who is responsible for keeping Comanche in Australia and campaigning her for another go at the Hobart. He has won the race before, won several World Championships in the Etchells and he is a good bloke, so he fits our criteria for a chat. Enjoy!

With so much sailing going on, it's hard to believe we are less then 2 weeks from the start of the Hobart. Its time for us to focus in. This week we chat to one of our favourite blokes, Tony Mutter, sailing master on Law Connect, the supermaxi that took line honours last year by the barest of margins. It was one of the great finishes. What will we see this year? We take you onboard and Tony shares all the inside gossip.

Also Vendee, WMRT, Sailing Champions League and more.
