Navigatrice britannique née en 1974, Samantha Davies est l’une des figures les plus inspirantes de la course au large. Elle se révèle au grand public lors du Vendée Globe 2008-2009, en terminant à la 4ᵉ place, seule à la barre de son voilier sur un tour du monde sans escale ni assistance. Mais c’est en 2020 qu’elle marque les esprits d’une manière encore plus forte : lors du Vendée Globe, elle heurte un OFNI (objet flottant non identifié) au large du Cap de Bonne-Espérance, endommageant gravement son voilier Initiatives-Cœur. Forcée d’abandonner officiellement la course, elle refuse pourtant de renoncer. Après des réparations au Cap, elle reprend la mer, seule, et boucle hors course le tour du monde — pour tenir sa promesse, pour elle-même, et surtout pour continuer à soutenir l’association Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque, qui lui tient tant à cœur. Un acte de courage et d’engagement qui montre que l’esprit marin, ce n’est pas seulement franchir une ligne d’arrivée, mais garder le cap, même quand tout semble perdu. #SamanthaDavies #Voile #VendéeGlobe #femmesfortes #navigation #courseaularge #Inspirante #ocean #Aventure

When we sailed the island of Lefkas in the Ionic Sea of Greece, on the most southeastern side of the island, is an islet called Atokos. This is an uninhabited island, where on the east coast is the famous Wild Pig Beach. We took our dinghy and looked at the pigs that walked on the beach here. The pigs are wild or semi-wild pigs, probably descendants of animals that were once left on the island by humans. This happens more often on uninhabited islands, where pigs are introduced for food purposes or accidentally stranded by ship voyages. Atokos has been uninhabited for a long time, but in the past it was occasionally visited by shepherds or hunters. The pigs may have come from these. They eat a wide range of plants, seeds, roots and nuts that occur in nature. On Atokos vegetation is sparse, but pigs can eat dried grass and branches. Marine life can also be a source of food; some pigs eat washed-up seaweed or small crustaceans. Although pigs are technically wild, they often exhibit semi-tame behaviors when they come into contact with people. Their behavior depends on how much interaction they have had with visitors. They can tolerate human contact, but often remain wary. Some pigs are curious and dare to approach, especially if they smell food!

For more information, visit: http://www.denisonyachtsales.com/necker-belle-superyacht/ NECKER BELLE (Ex 'Lady Barbaretta') was built in 2003 at the CMB Shipyard in Cherbourg France. At the time of her launch she was the largest performance sailing Catamaran ever built. In 2009 NECKER BELLE completed a two-year major refit in Australia. Her interior received a complete interior build-out with the addition of a fourth stateroom and the exterior upper deck was modified to achieve more deck space. Many other improvements have been made over the last few years including the installation of two brand new Caterpillar C7 main engines in 2014.
