1. The phrase “feeling blue” originated at sea. When a ship lost its captain during a voyage, the sailors would sail blue flags, indicating their loss. Today, when you say you feel blue, you are feeling sad. 2. Sailing has been part of the Olympics since 1896. Except for the 1904 Summer Games, sailing has been included in all modern Olympic games. That makes it one of the longest running Olympic disciplines around. 3. Sailing around the world westward is more difficult than eastward. Most world-record contenders choose to sail eastward due to the stronger and more predictable winds and currents that push eastward in the Southern Hemisphere. 4. “He’s a loose cannon” is another phrase with sailing roots. The cannons on a ship could weigh up to 3,400 pounds. Just as a loose cannon could cause damage on ship, a person referred to as such may also create unwelcome situations. 5. The world-record sailing speed is 65.45 knots (121km/h). As of November 2012, the fastest sailing speed on record is held by Australian Paul Larsen. His specially designed Sailrocket 2 has an unconventional design meant for high-speed sailing.

My name is Miquel Àngel, and I have a sailor's soul. Long time I have been sailing and offering tours along the eastern coast of Mallorca with my beloved Malakai sailboat. I used to be a fisherman for many years and I know very well the Mediterranean Sea. Now, I'd rather transport people than fish, they have more interesting conversations 😛 I am a simple person and I need little to be happy. Sailing, without worries, carried by the wind and syncing myself with the boat sails, enjoying the blue and turquoise, and the breeze. I also enjoy spending time with the people who visit me, learning about their origins and showing my Mallorcan culture and land. Book all-day sailing trips, in the mornings or afternoons. Contact us by calling 00 34 690 007 402.
