SwedenSKIPPER
Beyond Racing Team is a young Swedish female match racing team from Gothenburg, skippered by Martina Carlsson. The sailors grew up racing dinghies together, and against each other, before coming together three years ago to compete internationally as a team. Representing the Royal Gothenburg Yacht Club (GKSS), a club that has developed many successful match racing sailors over the years, the team trains and competes with the ambition of continuing that tradition. This season marks Beyond Racing Team’s third year on the Women’s World Match Racing Tour. With a shared ambition, strong team dynamic, and focus on development, the team looks forward to competing in the 2026 Tour.
