We are Ziggy and Nat, a couple who not so long ago knew nothing about sailing. Fast forward few years and we are proud to say we know a thing or two about sailing, we bought a boat and now we are refitting that boat with a plan to leave the life we know behind. The RYA Start Yachting was our first course. We loved it and wanted more. At that time we had no idea how big the community of boaters is. We met fantastic people on each and every course we did. For the first time since we moved to the UK we felt like we were part of something. The sailing community was welcoming, friendly and so inspiring. We found a lifestyle we knew we wanted for ourselves. We bought Squalo a 1981 Oyster 39”, the day after our Yachtmaster Offshore exam. She ticked so many boxes of things we wanted from a blue water cruiser. But she was neglected, and although we had no experience in boat refit, “surely, it can’t be that difficult.” we thought. So here we are. Putting blood, sweat and at times even tears into our yacht Squalo. Because not only she will be a vessel taking us to the most remote places on earth.. she will become our floating home for many years to come. We are documenting our experiences during the refit and sharing this journey with others.

This is the kind of moment that defies belief. Two large yachts racing dangerously close in heavy storm conditions. Their wakes collide with incoming waves, creating chaotic, unpredictable water movement. One boat tips so far that the mast nearly drags into the ocean—a point of no return for most vessels. The entire crew screams, expecting a capsize. Then something impossible happens. The boat snaps upright and powers forward as if nothing happened. The cameraman—and everyone watching—can't believe what they just witnessed. This is raw, viral-worthy footage of extreme offshore racing where split-second decisions and pure luck determine life and death. ⛵ What happens in this series: • Two yachts racing extremely close • Wake collision creates chaos • One boat tips to near-capsize angle • Crew bracing for the worst • Impossible recovery caught on camera • Immediate aftermath and shock reactions • Damage assessment while still racing • Both boats completing the race 🌊 Real offshore racing. Real danger. Real miracles caught on iPhone. Have you ever seen something this impossible? Drop your experience in the comments. This kind of footage is exactly why we love the ocean and fear it at the same time. #OffshoreRacing #SailingAdventure #ExtremeWeather #StormRacing #SailingLife #RawFootage #SurvivalInstinct #NearCapsize #MarineLife #Regatta #WaveAction #OceanPower #ActionSports
