THIS IS AMAZING NEWS!!! The Marine Biologists at Manta Trust confirmed that what we saw today was NOT manta rays, but their close cousins — Mobula tarapacana. Even more incredible: this was the first recorded mating train of this species in French Polynesia, and only the 5th ever documented worldwide! These mobula are seen in the Tuamotus, but in the open ocean. The first two mobulas were females and the second one was pregnant, followed by two males actively chasing them — behavior very similar to manta mating. A rare and thrilling encounter we’ll never forget!

Working closely with Taty Frans, MauiSails is excited to introduce the all new 2014 "Loco Pro" 4-batten dedicated freestyle sail. This is the greatest evolution to our highly successful, multiple time EFPT champion and former PWA vice champion Loco sail line since its inception, involving a complete redesign around the 4 batten layout. Having gained some shaping insight from our revolutionary Mutant sail range, but applied to a classic higher aspect ratio freestyle outline, the Loco is optimized for new school freestyle maneuvers. http://www.mauisails.com/sail.php?id=123

⚠️ Grosse frayeur à bord de OUALAOUTI aujourd’hui. On a croisé un bateau à très faible distance… sans qu’aucun de nos systèmes électroniques ne le détecte : ❌ Radar ❌ AIS ❌ Alarmes 👉 Ce rappel vaut pour tous : les instruments sont utiles, mais ne remplacent JAMAIS une veille visuelle active. 📍Lieu : Méditerranée – près de LEUCATE 🛥️ Bateau : Excess 12 – OUALAOUTI 🎥 Capté en live, pas rejoué. #voile #securitemer #radar #ais #oualaouti #viedebateau #frayeurenmer #catamaranlife #navigationresponsable
