Electrical systems are not background systems. They are part of the yacht’s operational coherence. During owner week, new Garcia owners work on onboard electricity to build practical understanding and stronger autonomy before departure. Mastery reduces uncertainty. What system do owners most often underestimate before going offshore? #GarciaYachts #OnboardElectricity #OffshoreSystems #ExpeditionYacht #BluewaterSailing

A day at Berthon. A few timelapses shot from around the marina and shipyard throughout the day. One of the first yacht marinas to be built in the UK, Lymington Marina offers 280 deepwater, well-protected Lymington River berths for yachts up to 45m (150ft) LOA in the Georgian town of Lymington, on the West Solent close to Hurst Castle and the Needles. www.berthon.co.uk Music: http://www.bensound.com/royalty-free-music

Day 3 at the North Sound @MaxiRegatta introduced something new: Triple Head Sunday, a time trial-style race where each team picked their perfect moment to send it down a 1.4-mile reaching course. With the pressure on to go as fast as possible, strategy and timing were everything. North Sails-powered Balthasar came out on top on corrected time. “That was a nice bonus,” said North Sails expert and project manager Bouwe Bekking. But beyond the result, it was the unique format and full-team effort that made the day memorable. “It was a big day for us,” said Bekking. “We had the owner's wives and friends onboard, which was really special. I’d say they were our lucky charm. We nailed the timing, had good pressure in the first run, and got our triple-head configuration dialed in.” Sailing at 20–22 knots with three headsails flying—a jib, genoa staysail, and a smaller sail on the bowsprit—Balthasar showed what the team (and the sails) could do when everything clicks. Triple Head Sunday delivered exactly what this week is all about: good breeze, clever racing formats, and a whole lot of fun—on and off the water. More breeze, more racing, and more stories to come from the North Sound. #NorthSails #MaxiRegatta #BitterEndYachtClub #NorthSound #VirginGorda  🎥 Vertigo Films | Maxi Regatta
