Date change notice to the VX One Worlds: The VX One Worlds is now 5–10 April 2027 (was 29 March–3 April) at Shake-A-Leg Miami / Coconut Grove Sailing Club. The shift aligns with the Bacardi Cup date (1–3 April) and the Easter period, giving teams the best chance to train and tune up on Biscayne Bay. We know some of you have already planned around the original dates—thank you for your understanding. We can’t wait to welcome VX One sailors from around the world for a week of top-level one-design racing.  Link in bio for more information #vxoneusa #vxonecanada #vxoneaustralia #vxonekvd #vxoneuk

Check out the VXOne beach trolley # Enjoy launching the VX One from a beach or ramp. The VX One beach trolley has been modified to have protection in all the right places and balanced to make moving and launching the boat easy. It’s just one more reason to love the VX One! #vxsailing #vxone #sailing

A full range of conditions at Royal Brighton Yacht Club for the Victorian VX One Champs, with breeze and shifts on Saturday before a light and tactical finish on Sunday. Rob Douglass, Nic Douglass and Josh Griffith on Dollop (AUS319) took the win, with travelling teams locking out the podium after six races. A great showing for the class, with tight racing right through the fleet. As always, a fantastic weekend at RBYC, thanks to everyone behind the scenes.

The VX One National Championship was contested from 13 to 18 January at Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, with 30 teams lining up on Moreton Bay for a demanding week of racing. Sailors were tested by a wide range of conditions throughout the regatta, highlighting both the performance of the VX One and the calibre of the fleet. After nine races, Mack One (VAUS376), skippered by Ben Franklin with Alan Moffat and Danny Fuller, claimed their seventh VX One National Championship. The team entered the final scheduled day with a decisive points margin, meaning the title was secured even before racing was ultimately abandoned. “It’s been pretty exciting,” said Franklin on Mack One’s performance. “Alan, Danny and I sailed together for our first Nationals, eight or nine years ago.” "I love sailing the boats, they have a great feel. We started sailing them when there were three or four in Queensland and we just fell in love with the boat really”. Deadly (VAUS349), skippered by William Woerman with Greg Clarke and Simon Small, finished second overall, with Rope Solutions Rigging Services (VAUS351), skippered by Chris Anderson with Darren Hutchison and Mitchell Miller, completing the podium. The VX One National Championship also highlighted the growing strength and inclusivity of the now International Class. The 30-boat fleet featured competitors from seven clubs across five Australian states, along with an international entry from Hong Kong. Seven youth skippers under the age of 21 competed alongside ten senior helms aged over 60, demonstrating the class’s appeal across generations. Female participation was a standout, with women sailing on nearly half the teams, four female helms including two youth skippers, and an all-female crew competing at the championship. Thank you for the great work by the RQYS and a passionate group of volunteers to host and hold the regatta, and the support from an outstanding group of sponsors: Pantaenius Sail & Motor Yacht Insurance, Northside Marine / Highfield, Harken Australia, North Sails, and Rope Solutions Rigging Services.
