Our Team
■
Shannon Gray has been part of the Australian ski racing scene since 1985, starting out on the water as a skier at Wisemans Ferry in Sydney. As a second-generation ski racer, he grew up on skis before moving into boat driving, and in recent years racing with his wife Lisa as observer and their kids, Alissa and Jake, competing as skiers.
In 1987 Shannon built his first boat ‘Shades Of Gray’ with his father, Kelvin Gray. What started as a family project soon became a lifelong passion, and he now refines every build with an emphasis on performance, strength and reliability.
Now based in Ballina, NSW, Shannon works alongside his son Jake and fellow ski racer Campbell Taylor. Together they continue the family tradition, building boats that carry forward the heritage of ski racing while embracing innovation and precision.
