Strangford Lough in Northern Ireland was formed by glaciers during the last ice age. It is a place of great beauty as well as being a fun place to sail for cruisers and racers alike. The tides are strong due to the large volume of water that races in and out of the narrows between Portaferry and Strangford every 12 hours. Mastering the tides is a key to getting where you want to be as fast as possible. If you get it wrong you will end up going backwards in seconds. It is always great when someone takes footage of you boat from afar, this drone footage was taken James Curran as GTR works towards on the Narrows on her way to the Irish sea during the 2019 race from East Down Yacht Club to the Isle of Mann. It was a great days racing with GTR just making the crossing before the time limit prevented other boats from recording a finish in the IRC 1 class.

Hurricane Ian left a path of destruction across Cuba, Florida, and the Carolinas on October of 2022. When it swept through Daytona, it was a tropical storm for a while before again becoming a hurricane. But it sat there battering Daytona for a long time, and eventually managed to wreck our sailboat on the bank of the Halifax River. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We can't produce quality inspirational content indefinitely without the support of our fans.
