New Partner Alert: Fueling the Kiwi Challenge 🇳🇿🍴

I am super stoked to announce that Real Meals has joined the team as my official nutrition partner for the 2026 season!

As I prepare to take the "Silver Fern" back to the Figaro racing Circuit, I knew I needed a partner that shared the Kiwi values of excellence and adventure. Real Meals is a New Zealand-based company that specialises in high-quality, calorie-dense freeze-dried food made from the best local ingredients.

Why Real Meals?

In the high-stakes environment of the Figaro Beneteau 3 racing circuit, where every boat is identical and success depends purely on strategy and mental toughness, nutrition becomes a critical performance lever. When I am racing solo or double-handed, burning immense amounts of energy while operating on minimal sleep, a warm and nutritionally balanced meal is more than just fuel. It is a vital boost to morale when I’m exhausted. Because the Figaro class demands such intense resilience, the practicality of Real Meals' lightweight and simple preparation fits the demands of my workplace, the "Big Blue" ocean.

Creating the Story

This partnership is a key chapter in the story of performance and passion that I aim to share with audiences worldwide. Beyond the competition, my campaign is a platform to engage the world on ocean health and the necessity of protecting the lifeblood of our planet. By fuelling my challenge with the best New Zealand products, I am ready to push the boundaries of human endurance and reclaim our place on the global stage. I can’t wait to share the journey (and the menu) with you all as we push the boundaries of human endurance and advocate for the health of our "Big Blue" ocean.

Let’s get eating! ⛵💨
