A Week with Chiharu is a seven-day glimpse into the life of 91-year-old Chiharu as she spends time with her son Mitsu and me in Buren Bay, Japan. Through ordinary moments, sharing meals, singing, sailing, walking, and simply enjoying each day's adventures- I'm exploring what everyday life can teach us about aging well, community, and the art of growing older. Day 5 Today began, as most mornings do, with Radio Taiso and breakfast. Later we went beachcombing, read a little haiku, and as evening approached, experienced one of Japan's delightful summer moments—a yūdachi, a sudden late-afternoon rain shower. Rather than run for cover, Mitsu stood outside and enjoyed his unexpected shower while Chiharu looked on, smiling as she watched her son embracing the moment. What has stayed with me throughout this week is the obvious enjoyment a mother and son find in each other's company. Whether they're sailing, singing, sharing a meal, or laughing in the rain, there is a deep ease between them that feels increasingly rare—and increasingly worth noticing. Tomorrow... Day 6. About the series A Week with Chiharu follows one ordinary week in the life of 91-year-old Chiharu in Buren Bay, Japan. Rather than searching for dramatic secrets to longevity, the series pays attention to the everyday moments that shape a life well lived. #Longevity #Community #JapanSolo #HealthyAging #Japan #MotherAndSon

New Year's in the BVI is pretty much gone — holiday weeks sell out months in advance, and the best crewed catamarans for late December are usually reserved by early fall. Here's how to win next year instead: inquire 8–12 months out, target December 28 – January 4, and budget from around $30,000 all-inclusive (most New Year bookings land between $40,000 and $50,000). Then it's Foxy's Old Year's party, the Trellis Bay fire show, and midnight on your own deck. Running late? We track cancellations live.

The start of any sailing race is critically important to you over success in any race. With the pin end favoured and some smaller boats crossing the fleet on port to try and own the ping end of the line there was a lot on during the start of this race in the annual frosties regatta at Strangford Lough Yacht Club. The team on GTR got a leeward hook on What's the Rush II and forced to her to windward, as the two boats round up they nearly caught out an SB20 which was cross the two boats on port to try and line up at the pin end of the line. After a close cross with and SB20 who was caught out by the sudden round up the team on GTR pushed What's the Rush head to wind while closing the gauge to setup for a nice leebow position as the make their run for the line. The skipper on What's the Rush continue to turn up to try and get some gauge to windward to prevent the leebow. At one point What's the Rush went past head to wind, while this did give them some gauge to windward it slowed their boat speed significantly as the jib trimmer failed to release the sheet which resulted in the jib back winding which slowed them down and reduced the benefit of getting the additional gauge to windward. The Mumm 36 GTR maintain more speed, hitting the line as the gun went, this allowed them to pinch a little closer to What's the Rush while they bore off the accelerate. This put the Mumm 36 GTR in the controlling position and allowed them to setup for a leebow which enable them to control the first beat. If you would like to learn more about the leebow, check out one of our earlier videos which take you through the sailing science of won of the best attacking up wind manoeuvres.
