It has been a year of expedited recovery and the BVI Spring Regatta and Sailing Festival hasn’t missed a beat. The stage is set for the 48thedition to begin on March 25-31, 2019. With slogans of “No Fear- Just Great Racing and Fun” as well as “Building BVI Back Bigger-Better -Stronger”, regatta director, Judy Petz said “The energy and spirit of sailing in the BVIs takes more than category five hurricanes to keep people from coming back to sail and race. We are open, ready, and excited to welcome sailors from around the world to come for the first time or back again.”

Here’s an interesting view of an Exploration 45 from the front. It reveals what Olivier Racoupeau refers to as ‘beam stability’, in his interview on the Garcia Yachts channel. Katy and Jerry on GX25 - Idril pulled up to the dock next to GX27 - Snow Gum. The four of us humans had a good chat about all manner of things relating to Exploration 45s. It was like the old days, pre Covid. Good fun. 🙂 I don’t know what the two boats talked about. Regards, Rick. Quick quiz - what’s the story with the name Idril? No search engines allowed! 😠

We don’t see many others doing it when crossing a bridge… But we take pride in doing things the proper way — maybe it’s a navy habit we can’t shake? Did you know it’s actually good seamanship to hoist the NOVEMBER flag when requesting a bridge opening?
