Chris McAsey is a New Zealand rower and sailor.

He later switched to sailing, joining Team New Zealand as a grinder for their 2003, 2007, and 2013 America's Cup campaigns. He worked as a truck driver after the 2013 America's Cup.
McAsey is married to Suzy Easterbrook, who represented New Zealand at beach volleyball. Easterbrook's mother, Sandra Easterbrook, was a member of the New Zealand team that won the 1967 world championship.
