On Wednesday, June 8th, 2011 as the sailboat fleets made their way in from the evening races, they were glad to beat the thunderstorm that was coming in from the west. Just at dusk eye witnesses saw a lightning bolt hit a 30 ft ketch swinging on a mooring in McKinley harbor, downtown Milwaukee. " It lit up like a Christmas tree" was how one observer described the event. Within an hour the boat was under water with just portions of the masts showing. www.forespar.com #Forespar #products #sailing #whisker #pole #whiskerpole #downwind #ocean #sea #docking #power #powerboating #powerboat #sailingboat #tutorial #boating #newport #california Visit Our Website! www.forespar.com Follow us on our social media: https://www.instagram.com/foresparproducts/ https://twitter.com/ForesparSailing

Windelo has no intention of playing small. It recently announced two larger bluewater catamarans: the Windelo 58 and the Windelo 62. Founded in 2019, the French yard has already carved out a successful market with its eco-conscious, performance-oriented catamarans.  ▫️ These new flagships are a bold statement of intent from Windelo. More space, more autonomy, and more performance without the environmental compromise. ▫️ They are continuing itheir design partnership with industry legends Christophe Barreau and Frédéric Neuman and have joined forces with the Stellantis Design Studio. ▫️ The goal? Take down the barriers between inside and out – letting the horizon become part of the living space.  ▫️ Performance for the design team is not just about sailing fast. It’s also about sailing more often — being able to move under sail in as little as 3 to 4 knots of wind.  ▫️ #eco #yachts #oceans @windelocatamaran

LAK II is a beautiful yacht that in a sense carries in her timbers the story of France over the past 85 years. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/742/LAK%20II Born in a brief period of optimism between depression and war, and somehow a survivor of that war’s deprivations; designed by a young naval architect, André Mauric, whose genius would later become universally recognised; vibrant participant in the carefree post war years, and in France’s intense America’s Cup campaigns of the 1970s... But in the end, a wonderful yacht because André Mauric had that touch of technical and artistic flair that guarantees immortality. LAK II was given a new lease of life in 2007 that ensures another lifetime of pleasure giving. In current ownership in England she has been recently given a fully electric propulsion system and new sails, and won her class at the 2022 edition of British Classic Week.
