Eunice dharastii - A Bobbitt Worm named after a Marnie Conservation Pioneer Hidden beneath the sand lies one of the oceans most astonishing ambush predators. This is *Eunice dharastii* — a species of Bobbit worm named in honour of marine conservation pioneer Dr Dave Harasti. Though rarely seen in full, the creatures presence is unmistakable: iridescent plates, feathered antennae sensing the current, and a lightning-fast strike that has earned these worms a legendary reputation among divers and scientists. In this short film, youll glimpse the world of a hunter that relies on patience, precision and the cover of darkness. It waits in silence, anchored beneath the seabed, rising only when the moment is right. The contrast between its delicate colours and formidable behaviour makes this worm one of the oceans most fascinating contradictions. Slow your pace, watch closely and discover the secretive life of a creature whose story now carries the name of someone who has devoted his own to understanding and protecting the sea. www: https://solitude.world/issue-2-explorer-ocean-escapes/

All yachts hide their secrets. On the outside we see the hull reflecting the water, gleaming brightwork, clean deck lines and seas of sail. Underneath is a complex story, based on advanced design and structural engineering, and in the centre of every X-Yacht built since 1981, a heart of steel. Walking around the X-Yachts facilities in Haderslev, an ancient and pretty town in southern Denmark, you'll walk into one of the service yard buildings to find a yacht hanging there. No cradle, no supports, no slings, with the keel floating a couple of centimetres off the ground. Tons of yacht seemingly defying gravity. The answer comes back to the steel frame, and the single-point lift which is integral to it. The yacht is perfectly balanced, so hoisting yachts out of the water only requires this attachment point to suspend an X-Yacht from the building's ceiling crane. From the point of view of service this makes things much cleaner. No working around the cradle pads, no having to move the slings to remove antifoul. The hull is completely clear to work on, and keeping the fleet of X-Yachts in top condition is a major part of what the team in Haderslev do. Owners are rightly proud of their X-Yacht and want them looking and performing at their best, year after year.
