Based out of Perth, Western Australia, Redline Racing has quickly become a formidable force on the World Match Racing circuit having climbed the world rankings from unranked to sixth in the ISAF rankings in just two years.

Winning three grade two events including two World Match Racing Tour events, sitting inside the top 10 of the WMRT leader board going into Malaysia, making the semi-finals in our first WMRT event in Germany and being selected to sail in the M32 Youth High Performance Training Camp in Chicago in August are just some of the highlights of the 2015 season thus far. With these notable achievements coupled with unmatched determination, the team is hungry to join the newly revamped M32 World Match Racing Tour.

Since inception, Redline Racing has had a strong relationship with world leading sailing apparel providers Musto Australasia. After our successful 2015 season we are excited to announce that Musto Australasia have upgraded their sponsorship package, integrating Redline Racing as part of Team Musto with full sponsorship for all clothing on and off water for the 2016 WMRT season. The team can’t wait to get on the water in our new Musto gear and is proud to represent Musto on the new M32 catamarans next year. Equipment is critical in any sport and especially in the sport of sailing – we are now confidence that we will have the best gear with Musto for the 2016 WMRT. Redline has also partnered with Code Zero Marine online sailing equipment distributors, South of Perth Yacht Club under the mentorship of Mikael Lundh and Southern Crossfit to keep the team fit for M32 racing.

Lastly the team is eager to start the summer of sailing coming up where we are looking to the final of the 2015 World Match Racing Tour in Malaysia at the Monsoon Cup with fingers crossed for a wildcard! This event will be the decided of the top eight positions in the WMRT, Redline Racing is hungry to compete in Malaysia and prove ourselves against the best teams in the world.
