*READ CAPTION* We were travelling through country SA when we drove past a dead kangaroo (not unusual for this part of the world), it looked like it had been hit fairly recently, given the bright red blood on the road, so we turned around and checked the pouch. To our surprise, there was a (what seemed to be) uninjured, but likely in shock, baby Joey in the pouch. This is the first Joey we’ve come across so we weren’t entirely sure what to do, we thought it was best to wrap him in a towel (to act like a warm pouch) and find someone to help care for him. Unfortunately, we didn’t have any phone reception to contact anyone, so we drove 45 minutes to a visitor centre in the nearest town. Thankfully the lovely ladies knew exactly who to call and within 30 minutes we had taken the baby Joey to his new home. The wildlife carer who took in this new orphan had 4 other babies that she was caring for, each one needing fed 4 times per day with special marsupial milk and each having their own home made pouch. Joeys can be the size of a mandarin or a small puppy so make sure to have a good look within the pouch. If the Joey is attached to the tit don’t pull it off as it can damage it’s jaw, instead remove the tit. Moral of the story is, if you see a dead kangaroo on the road please please (safely) stop and check the pouch as you might find a tiny orphan looking for its new home.
#MaseratiMulti70 #RolexFastnetRace Maserati Multi 70 e Giovanni Soldini hanno preso il via per la 49a edizione della Rolex Fastnet Race, tagliando la linea di partenza al largo di Cowes (UK) alle 10.10 UTC (12.10 ora italiana). Il trimarano italiano è partito insieme a 15 altri multiscafi, tra cui il 105’ Ultim 32/23 Maxi Edmond De Rothschild di Cyril Dardashti, con skipper Franck Cammas e Charles Caudrelier, che nel 2019 ha fissato il record dei multiscafi della regata (1 giorno, 4 ore, 2 minuti e 26 secondi). Il diretto concorrente di Maserati Multi 70 è il MOD 70 Argo di Jason Carroll, a bordo del quale è presente anche Brian Thompson, uno degli skipper più esperti di multiscafi spesso sfidato da Soldini. Per questa edizione della storica regata di 695 miglia, organizzata dal Royal Ocean Racing Club, sono partite a scaglioni 336 imbarcazioni, tagliando la starting line con 24 nodi da Ovest e cielo coperto: dovranno uscire dal Solent con vento contrario e tempo severo. Successivamente attraverseranno il Mar Celtico fino al Fastnet, al largo dell’Irlanda, prima di tornare indietro verso il traguardo, al largo di Cherbourg, sulla costa settentrionale della Francia. A bordo di Maserati Multi 70 per questa sfida con Giovanni Soldini: Vittorio Bissaro, Guido Broggi, Ned Collier Wakefield, John Elkann, Oliver Herrera Perez, Francesco Pedol e Matteo Soldini.
