What a brave person! Regardless of lens, I wouldn't take a GX8 on a rubber dinghy to photograph yacht races: it's going to get wet. With salt water. And AFAIK the camera isn't weatherproof. I'd take a fixed lens water-proof camera with decent zoom and be prepared to crop. The TG4 looks like a good bet.

Good luck - and please post your decision!
