In September 2019, American Magic’s DEFIANT became the first AC75 to both sail and foil on the waters of Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island. Since then, the first of two AC75’s to be built for the U.S. America’s Cup Challenger has been in a “shakedown” phase, where the complex and cutting-edge systems have been tested and refined. Also part of this groundbreaking period has been the shakedown of the human element; the training of some of the world’s first AC75 sailors. American Magic’s team of grinders, trimmers, and other specialists have been recruited from the best of Olympic, foiling, and previous Cup classes, but sailing onboard DEFIANT is unlike anything else.

In Japan, money is rarely handed over as bare cash when the relationship matters. It’s placed in an envelope. A simple gesture—but one that adds respect, clarity, and dignity. It turns a transaction into something more. In a culture that values harmony (wa), even money is handled with care. Another small insight into Japan’s art of community. About me: I’m Lowell Sheppard, 71, sailor, author, and Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society. Through Japan Solo Field Notes, I explore aging, place, and community across Japan. follow Japan Solo on Instagram and Substack and check out the Never Too Late Academy https://nevertoolateacademy.com #Japan #JapaneseCulture #MoneyEnvelope #JapanSolo #CulturalInsights #LifeLessons #Respect #Tradition #Wa #Harmony #JapanLife
