Final update on Cyclone Vaianu tonight in Whangarei, New Zealand. We have thankfully been pretty well sheltered here in the boatyard and haven’t seen more than 40-45 knots tonight as the winds reached their peak. But we’re hearing reports from friends nearby that the winds are almost double that nearer Auckland and Great Barrier. We hope everyone stays safe overnight and we look forward to some respite tomorrow before the wind swings and picks up again for the second half of this weather event. Good luck everyone! Take care of each other! #cyclonevaianu #cyclonewatch #newzealand #newzealandcyclone #newzealand
Experience the awe and wonder of the world’s southernmost continent. A vast, harshly beautiful land where the silence of creaking ice is broken by humpback whales surfacing as you slip past on one of the most luxurious vessels ever to cruise these waters. Heading off the beaten track doesn’t quite describe the once-in-a-lifetime experience of chartering 91.5m Tranquility in Antarctica with Camper & Nicholsons. From December 2023 until February 2024 Tranquility will be welcoming guests onboard to explore Antarctica’s frozen beauty and witness the region’s extraordinary wildlife in unparalleled luxury. Launched in 2014 by Oceanco, Tranquility is well equipped for the harsh conditions of the Southern Ocean. It has a cruising range of 5,000 nautical miles, is certified to Lloyd’s Ice Class E, and has state-of-the-art navigational equipment with sonars for detecting uncharted rocks and ice growlers. Tranquility joins a growing number of superyachts journeying to the far reaches of the planet to satisfy an increasing appetite for adventurous cruising. “We are all seeing a desire from clients to venture to these distant “untouched” parts of the world. Charter has evolved.” explains Charter Manager Nicole Terry. “Guests want to explore and have these once-in-a-lifetime experiences in parts of the world that only a superyacht can take you, and of course Tranquility is more than happy to oblige!” Clients can expect to be awed by “the majestic untouched nature, the solitude, the silence, and the feeling of entering another world,” explains Tranquility’s Captain Jan Rautawaara, who is no stranger to these waters. “Being able to visit remote, desolate places, and to see some extraordinary wildlife is a true adventure,” he adds, hoping that bringing guests on an Antarctic expedition will “broaden our own understanding of nature and make us realise how important it is to preserve this fragile life around us.” Tranquility will be available for charter in Antarctica from $1,600,000 per week from early December 2023 – late February 2024.

¿¿¿Y qué pasó en la vuelta de obligado??? Se libre la gran batalla contra el plan anglofrancés para dominar el río Uruguay y tener libre navegación del Paraná. Juan Manuel de Rosas, sin una fuerza naval competente para hacer frente a la intromisión extranjera, dispuso la instalación de baterías próximas a San Pedro, provincia de Buenos Aires, en la conocida Vuelta de Obligado. Este lugar estratégico en la orilla occidental del Paraná es un recodo barrancoso con escasos 40 metros de profundidad y unos 700 metros de ancho. El combate se inició al amanecer del día 20 de noviembre de 1845, con un intenso cañoneo y fuertes descargas de cohetes sobre las baterías argentinas. El combate duró siete horas durante las cuales la intensidad del fuego. Esta Batalla es un hito en la formación de nuestra historia como Nación, porque unidos por la férrea convicción de la defensa y salvaguarda de nuestro territorio, los argentinos demostramos ser un país joven pero maduro en sus creencias. Aún en desigualdad de fuerzas y sin la tecnología de guerra que los extranjeros desplegaron en los frentes, la defensa nacional resistió, con el honor de quien por amor y patriotismo elige anteponer su vida antes que la libertad de un compatriota.
