Meet the Fastest Team on Water. Having shattered the all-time sailing speed record in 2025, ROCKWOOL Racing SailGP Team has proven that it’s comfortable racing on the edge. Now, backed by American Magic’s high-performance expertise and technical excellence, the Danish-flagged boat is ready to find another gear. Led by Nicolai Sehested, the crew combines Olympic champions, endurance speed-record breakers and round-the-world adventurers – and with more than eight nationalities across its sailing and shore team, ROCKWOOL Racing is one of the most international teams in the SailGP league. A precise and methodical approach to racing has seen the Danish-flagged boat steadily climb the SailGP championship leaderboard to become a genuine podium contender, closing out the 2025 season with a first SailGP event win. Boosted by American Magic’s experience and leadership, the ambition for the 2026 season isn’t incremental gains – its new ceilings.
