Wicklow's J/24 Team Jupiter have qualified for the J/24 World Championships this September in Plymouth, UK. This is an amazing opportunity for a Wicklow to compete against some of the best sailors in the world.

As you can imagine, getting to that start line isn’t easy - we need any support we can get to make it happen.

Our aim for the 2025 season is to compete in 6 major regattas (including the Worlds & Irish Nationals in September)

We've worked hard to get our boat, crew, sail & rigging in order and our efforts are starting to pay off:

As we are self funded, any support would be appreciated.

Our overheads include; full suit of racing sails, accommodation for events, road transport, ferry costs, crew gear and more.

Whether you’re a friend, fellow sailor, or just someone who's willing to support a local sports effort - we’d be very grateful for your help.

We’ve been working hard over the last year to get here - training, racing, fine-tuning the boat, and doing everything we can to improve.

As a team we’re determined to put in a strong performance and fly the Irish flag with pride.

Every bit of support brings us closer to that start line.

Thank you to everyone who has offered their help so far!

– Team Jupiter
