Lewin-LaFrance Sailing

WE ARE GEORGIA & ANTONIA

We learned to sail in Chester, Nova Scotia. After a few years of the summer junior sailing program, we started sailing year round as part of the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron Race Team and the Nova Scotia Sailing Team. Georgia holds a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering, and Antonia's is in Biochemistry and Immunology. After our studies, we committed to sailing full time. We paired up in 2018 with the goal of reaching the Olympic podium in Paris 2024. We started that quad as complete novices to the 49erFX, the Olympic circuit, and the athlete lifestyle. Over 6 years, we became one of the fastest teams in the world, we built lifelong friendships within the sailing community, and we grew as athletes and as people. All of that hard work came together to make 2024 an epic year. On the last day of our first Olympic regatta, we came back ashore having narrowly missed the medal race (finishing 11th overall), we cried and hugged, and we were in unspoken agreement that we'd given away far too many points.

After a long period of reflection, we've come to the conclusion that we have to go back again. We have to apply the lessons from our first quad and take ourselves to the next level. This time around, we can feel it. We're going all in for a medal at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028.
