The Royal Malta Yacht Club’s annual Marzamemi Regatta returned earlier this month with a race that tested patience, perseverance, and tactical skill. While the individual legs were won by Jonathan Gambin’s Ton Ton Laferla Insurance (Malta to Marzamemi) and Stefan Debattista’s Geisha (Marzamemi to Malta), it was Sean Borg’s Jubatus who claimed the overall trophy. Two second-place finishes on corrected time secured their top spot.

The elegant OCEAN PURE 2 is a custom 41m (131' 2") sloop designed by Farr Yacht Design and built by Concorde Yachts. This proven blue water cruiser was first launched in 1992 but underwent a multi-million euro refit in 2019, allowing her to become the perfect example of a sailing yacht for her size and class. She combines all the luxurious amenities of a superyacht with the joy of sailing thanks to her seaworthiness and performance. Her exterior spaces were upgraded to feature beautiful teak decking and chic black sails. There is ample opportunity for sunbathing and relaxing across her three decks—including a unique deck located on top of the wheelhouse, perfect for watching the sunset or sunbathing with a cocktail. Her outdoor spaces are perfect for entertaining, with spacious al-fresco dining and lounging areas. This thoughtful design is carried through to her interior spaces. With leather, stone, and linen throughout, accented with teak and stainless steel, the décor can be described as modern and refined. Thanks to her incredible volume—225GT—she can comfortably accommodate 11 guests across five cabins. She is, in fact, one of the few 40m sailing yachts with a five-cabin configuration. OCEAN PURE 2 has a range of up to 2,600 nautical miles at 9 knots. Exclusively for sale with C&N, click here to learn more: https://bit.ly/3dvvA8g

This is about as close to live as we can get. Andy has sheltered in place at a hurricane protected building and I have gone to Brandon which appears to the be where the eye is going to make landfall. I can't get outside now as the wind and rain is really strong. Andy is able to see the boat via the marina webcam and she appears to be doing well. I do belive we are about 2 hrs from landfall. Other reports from friends that the water in the ICW that connects the channels to the Gulf of Mexico at clearwater harbor and Clearwater Beach appears to be lower which means the water is being taken from the hurricane as it did with Ian 2 years ago. Wish us luck as we contine to go thru this hurricane. Prayers to all in the path of it. This one is nasty for sure!
