Watch Bill Henson’s JPK 45 SIRENE flying downwind with their UK Sailmakers asymmetrical spinnaker in the 2024 Rolex Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race! Making an incredible debut, SIRENE was crowned IRC Corinthian Division Champion, took 2nd place in IRC Division 2, and finished 15th overall in IRC out of 104 starters—only 74 of which crossed the finish line. Representing Fremantle Sailing Club and equipped with an expertly crafted sail inventory from UK Sailmakers Fremantle, SIRENE showcased the perfect balance of versatility and performance that defines this racer-cruiser. The sails were designed and built by UK Sailmakers, with upwind sails developed by Pat Considine (UK Sailmakers Chicago) and asymmetrical spinnakers by Geoff Bishop (UK Sailmakers Fremantle). SIRENE’s inventory included: • X-Drive mainsail with three reefs • X-Drive J2 race jib, reefable to J3 • Heavy-weather J4 staysail on a furler • Code Zero, A2, A3, A4, and a reaching jib top • Storm jib for safety compliance The sail wardrobe was meticulously planned, combining local expertise with UK Sailmakers' cutting-edge Fluid–Structure Interaction (FSI) modeling—an advanced analytical tool that simulates the interaction between sails and surrounding airflow to optimize performance. The initial sail plan was developed in collaboration with Geoff Bishop of UK Sailmakers and a local rigger, with support from FSI modeling by UK Sailmakers' lead designer, Pat Considine. This resulted in a highly effective combination of a jib with a reef and a furling staysail, minimizing jib sail changes while providing a versatile downwind staysail.

Yacht for sale is a 2021 RIVA 33' "RIVA 33' AQUARIVA SUPER - IN-STOCK IN ONTARIO - READY FOR DELIVERY" AQUARIVA SUPER Cruising Yacht in Ontario, Canada. Great brands - those that make the history of lifestyle and design every day - do not belong to the companies that manage them but to the people who love them, to the fans who dream about them and honour them with their admiration and enthusiasm. This is the key to understanding why Riva has transfused into Aquariva Super all the qualities and timeless charm of the legendary Aquarama, an unforgotten cult boat that is still an object of desire today. Aquariva Super was born because there is a need in the world of yachting, and in the world more generally, for soft and elegant lines, for fine woods (the mahogany deck panelling with maple inlays) and luxurious leather finishes. Naturally, as well as the best things from the past, this outstanding yacht also features state of the art technology, such as the innovative electronically-controlled two speed gearbox, installed on the standard version, which boosts the acceleration of the twin powerful 370 HP Yanmar engines, enabling outstanding performances (with a top speed of 41.5 knots). And while the 10.07 m long and 2.8 m wide hull is no longer built in wood but in Kevlar composites, thanks to technological evolution, the spacious sun pad at the stern is a faithful copy of the one which hosted stars like Brigitte Bardot and Sophia Loren in the past. Past, future, glory, the pleasure of cruising, the thrill of perfection. In two words: Aquariva Super. Available through Executive Yacht. www.executiveyachtcanada.com 1.888.237.1647
