Watching SailGP from Shore | Halifax 2026

Since I've been getting to foiling, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to go watch some SailGP when it came to Halifax.

I don't have a big story to tell with this one just some footage of some of the fastest foiling sailboats in the world. The wind was a little light, but it was still a great event.
