Whether you were looking at the front or the back of the fleet, the Indian Ocean showed its teeth this week. A series of major low pressure systems were piling on the pressure for all, both mentally and physically. From damaged gear to broken boats, this was a week where the conditions were intimidating as the strong winds and wild sea state took their toll. But this is still a race and key tactical decisions needed to be made. And despite the intimidating conditions, the front runners made some punchy , high risk calls. This was a week of broken boats, big gambles and extraordinary tactics.

Who's the fastest windsurfer ever? ▫️ We ran a reel recently on the 500m World Sailing Speed Record currently held by Paul Larsen on Sailrocket 2. There are quite a few windsurfers on the list. ▫️ We got quite a few comments asking "where is Bjorn Dunkerbeck?" While he doesn´t hold any 500m sailing records, he has held 3 outright records over a nautical mile and also hit 55.97 knots over a 2 second time gap in 2021. ▫️ So here he is. Rocket Man @DunkerbecksWorld ▫️ Do you reckon you can channel this much power through a 40-centimeter wide board? ▫️ #windsurfing #record

The Sirena 60 marks a thoughtful evolution for Sirena Yachts, building on the success of the Sirena 58 while delivering more usable space, refined exterior living, and a modernized interior aesthetic. Making her world debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival 2025, the Sirena 60 is not a radical departure — it’s a smarter, more deliberate refinement of a proven platform. Exterior spaces at both the bow and stern have been reconfigured to maximize outdoor living, with expanded sun pads, improved seating arrangements, and better flow for entertaining. The flybridge has received a significant redesign, offering enhanced sightlines, a more functional helm layout, and a clearer separation between command and social zones. An extended bathing platform improves water access and makes handling tenders and water toys more practical. Inside, Sirena’s in-house design team focused on increasing usable interior volume. The result is a noticeably more open feel throughout the main deck and accommodations, paired with an updated contemporary décor. Signature elements from Frers Naval Architecture remain intact — including the plumb bow and dark-glass exterior surfaces — preserving the yacht’s recognizable profile while improving efficiency and seakeeping. True to the brand’s DNA, the Sirena 60 is built on a semi-displacement platform designed for long-range cruising at displacement speeds, with the flexibility to increase pace when conditions or itinerary demand it. Improved storage, stronger interior-exterior connectivity, and refined design execution position the Sirena 60 as a compelling contender in the 60-foot class. Key Specifications: • Length Overall: 63'8" (19.45 m) • Beam: 17'7" (5.36 m) • Draft: 4'1" (1.24 m) Watch the full review on BoatTEST.com.
