Paris Henken & Helena Scutt
49erFX
Proven. Powerful. Zero compromise. Reunited veterans of the 49erFX, back to chase the dream with more grit, precision, and fire than ever before.
Paris, the fearless tactician from San Diego, drives the boat with razor focus and years of Olympic experience. Helena, the engineer from Seattle turned America’s Cup and Moth racer, brings brains, balance, and a deep obsession with speed.
Together, they’re the perfect contradiction — instinct and analysis, heat and cool, chaos and calm — two athletes who make the hardest sport in the world look effortless. They’ve lived the grind: missed classes, broken gear, 4 a.m. gym sessions, and endless travel chasing one thing — speed that wins. Now, training full-time in Long Beach, they’re all in. Professional. Precise. Ruthlessly focused. Bound by something stronger than blood — sisters-in-law, teammates and partners in pursuit — they move as one.
