CHARLES STEWART MEMORIAL CUP
EVENT DAY INFORMATION
Saturday 2nd September 2023
In Memory of Charles Stewart
Tomorrow we pay tribute to our good friend to ocean paddling, Charles Stewart.
Charles passed away in January 2016 from a heart attack after finishing an ocean paddling session. Charles was instrumental in bringing sports like ours to the public through TV productions via The Wide World of Sports where he worked in the early days, through to coverage of trips like Ningaloo Dreaming and Hamilton Island.
Thank you for joining us for Charles’ memorial paddle tomorrow.

UARE App Update 
As you may all be aware, UAre app is our performance and wellbeing, technology partner for the entirety of the Shaw and Partners Financial Series – Australian Ocean Racing Series.
A HUGE update since the last event, The UAre app is now device agnostic. This means we now cater for all non-Garmin users. View the compatible wearables below.
Across the series, the UAre app will provide all participants with unique personal paddling data you can’t receive anywhere else.
These include:
- A personalised longevity score
- A personal performance score for each race, adjusting for things outside your control (age, gender, course conditions and your chosen craft)
- View your fastest 1km segment, (highlighted in yellow on your activity summary map) if you download the app and use a tracking device during the race*
- The ability to record your sentiment before and after your paddle
The UAre app will be free for all paddlers taking part in the events/series. The app is available via the Apple App Store and Google Play.
