Before we bought Adhara and became liveaboards we went on a sailing charter in Lanzarote for a week to try out if we could imagine living on a sailboat and how I’d feel about sailing in general. We did that in November of 2019 and a funny story about it is that I absolutely hated the first day! 😆 I couldn’t imagine why someone would actually enjoy sailing. I was scared, I got wet, I was freezing and I felt seasick for 6 hours straight and had no clue what a sheet is and what wind angle means. Apparent or true wind… wait, what? You guys can’t imagine the disappointment in Jans's eyes when I told him „no way in hell are we doing that“ 😂 Spoiler: the story has a good ending 😉 The second day we had the most beautiful weather and sailed around La Graciosa and Montaña Clara. I fell in love with the otherworldly landscape and raw beauty of these islands and enjoyed the gentle Atlantic swell, the idea of sailing as a means to explore this beautiful world we live on grew on me! And hey, no more seasickness! Ok Jan, I guess we’re doing it! AAHH I CAN'T BELIEVE WERE ACTUALLY DOING IT! 💙💙💙 Check out the video of our trip on our channel!

The RORC Myth of Malham Race is one of the Royal Ocean Racing Club’s most respected offshore tests and Race 2 of the 2026 RORC Cowes Offshore Series. Starting from the historic Royal Yacht Squadron Line in Cowes, the race sends the fleet west out of the Solent, along the English Channel to round the Eddystone Lighthouse, before returning to finish near the Solent. At approximately 235 nautical miles, the course delivers a classic Channel challenge, testing boat speed, tidal strategy, crew work and stamina. The Myth of Malham Race also carries deep RORC heritage. It is named after John Illingworth’s famous yacht Myth of Malham, winner of the Fastnet Race in 1947 and 1949, and part of the victorious British Admiral’s Cup Team in 1957. The 2026 race is an important early season event in the RORC Cowes Offshore Series, a seven race programme starting from Cowes, Isle of Wight. It is also part of the RORC Season’s Points Championship, the world’s largest offshore racing series. Race crews, friends and families are warmly welcomed at the RORC Cowes Clubhouse on Friday 22 May for drinks and the Myth of Malham pre-race supper at 1900. Booking is highly recommended.
