Two big launches at opposite ends of the world. On top, the 32m Ultim trimaran Gitana 18 headed out from her base in Lorient on the west coast of France for her maiden sail. Down under the Kiwis slipped their dock lines in Auckland to take their newly reconfigured AC75 out for its first sail. Both are big steps forward, both were carefully choreographed affairs and both represent the first steps in two new generations at the very leading edge of the sport.
Some towns just feel different… Tucked deep in the hills of Taranaki, Whangamomona is quirky, remote, and unforgettable. Add in the Forgotten World Highway, a hand-carved tunnel, and stories from the past—and you’ve got one epic New Zealand road trip. This is what travel by land and sea is all about. 🌏 Subscribe for more off-the-beaten-path adventures
