With over 100 boats on the start line everyone was fighting for air shortly after the start, with the tide coming in all day it paid to get right early to find both clear air and some relief from the stronger tide out in the main channel. On the way back in the trick was to find the deepest part of the channel to ensure you were in maximum tide to increase your speed over ground. Things were still tight as we made it down to the Harbour Turning mark off Cork City. A checky 1720 slide inside one of our competitors when the did not have room which gave us few more seconds back from Control-J as we battled to move up the standings on Day 3 of Volvo Cork week 2024 The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024

Giorno 17 - TIRRENO (Sicilia) Ci svegliamo sotto alla città vecchia di Milazzo, dopo una notte serena e tranquilla all’ancora. Alle 9 salpiamo verso Portorosa, Marina sicura e ridossata in vista dei prossimi giorni di mal tempo che sta colpendo tutto il Mediterraneo. Ormeggiamo, sistemiamo la barca per eventuale vento forte e… PULIAMO. PULIAMO TUTTO. Dedichiamo la giornata a preparativi e pulizie. Teak, gelcoat e qualsiasi angolo presente a bordo (compresi noi). Julia è tornata a essere un gioiellino ✨ Adesso vediamo di non far piovere 😂 Andrea #barcavela #vitainbarca #vivereinbarca #sailinglife #viaggio

Land diving is a ritual performed by the men of the southern part of Pentecost Island, Vanuatu. Men jump off wooden towers close to 90 feet high, with two tree vines wrapped around the ankles. Land diving is done by tying vines to each ankle. According to the Guinness World Records, the g-force experienced by those at their lowest point in the dive is the greatest experienced in the non-industrialized world by humans. The origin of land diving is described in a legend of a woman who was dissatisfied with her husband, . It is sometimes claimed that the woman was upset that her husband was too vigorous regarding his sexual wants, so she ran away into the forest. Her husband followed her, so she climbed a banyan tree.She tied lianas to her ankles and jumped and survived. Her husband jumped after her, but did not tie lianas to himself, which caused him to plummet and die. Originally, women did it in respect to the original woman who did it, but husbands were not comfortable with seeing their wives in such positions, so they took the sport for themselves, and it gradually changed from trees to specifically designed wooden towers. The men performed the original land diving so that they would not be tricked again.
