Kate was in high spirits ahead of the race

The Duchess also swept her long locks into a sporty ponytail which she wore through a light grey cap that read: "GBR, Sail GP team."

Kate was the perfect sportswoman and inspired a British sailing victory over the opposing New Zealand team in front of thousands of spectators who lined the Plymouth coast.

The team secured the win with the Duchess' help

The epic race, which took place ahead of the official final events of the SailGP international sailing competition, saw team GB take on endurance swimmer and environmentalist Lewis Pugh as a guest racer alongside Peter Burling and Blair Tuke on the New Zealand F50.

Kate was visiting the SailGP event site in her role as the patron of the 1851 Trust, the official charity of the Great Britain SailGP Team.
