This video was shot on Stefan Voss’ Archambault 35 OM ripping along into the darkest night on the Round Skagen Race 2022. That night they sped through the fleet keeping up with 50 and 55-footers. The finish of the 510-mile race was much less excited as they picked their way from catspaw to catspaw to keep moving in the lightest of breezes.

KALEA is a ketch-rigged classic yacht with up to four twin, en-suite cabins, spacious and elegant convivial spaces, and sparkling yet stately performance under both sail and motor. It all works just as well now aboard this mid-century gem as when she was first launched into the swinging sixties Italian Riviera, the product of a fruitful relationship between high performance motorsailer aficionado Bruno Veronese, and the embryonic years of what has become one of Italy’s most famous yards, Cantieri di Pisa. KALEA’s present, UK based owners have sensibly refitted, upgraded - and repaired where age required - to bring this special 69 footer into the 21st Century without any loss of vintage charm. KALEA is afloat and very ready for her 60th season. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/762/KALEA

*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.
