Working or playing? When you love what you do and do what you love there's often no clear line between the two. To design and build outstanding boats, understanding every aspect of the interplay between hulls, wind & water is crucial, as is first hand experience of all the systems and components that bring it to life and the potential effects of minor changes on any of these. Up close and wet on a mighty machine is one excellent way to do that and is exactly what our youngest team members have been doing this season. Design and build have teamed up in the persons of Luca and Pete, and they've been joined by others in their age groups from the yard and local sailing scene, as well as friends from Highwater Sails. D-1 is a well proven weapon and was the training ground for Daz himself who raced across the Atlantic (and won!) in a boat just like this, Clarke's Active Air, the 3rd Dazcat. They say passion diminishes over time but here it just seems to gather momentum. We'll be bringing you much more on D-1's season soon. In the meantime enjoy this short, and you decide whether they're working, playing or simply trying to survive!!

No Wind on the Way to Minerva Reef 🌊 Sailing at 3.5 Knots Under a Huge Sail | Pacific Ocean #shorts https://youtube.com/shorts/MhsI5okwA_E We are sailing toward Minerva Reef in the Pacific Ocean, and there’s absolutely no wind. Still, our boat glides forward at 3.5 knots under a massive sail. Complete calm. No engine — just the ocean and the canvas above. This peaceful #shorts video captures a rare moment of windless sailing in the open ocean. 📍 Heading to Minerva Reef, one of the most remote spots in the South Pacific. 🔔 Subscribe to Captain German Exploring for more sailing shorts, open-ocean crossings, and real-life moments under sail.
