In the heart of the Mediterranean, some races become legends.The Rolex Middle Sea Race is one of them. It unfolds on the sea of the Greeks, the sea of the Romans—waters rich with history, culture, and raw natural beauty. And then there’s Sicily, dramatic and enchanting, guarding the course like a silent giant. Out there, nothing is ever the same: shifting winds, unpredictable patterns, conditions that must be read, interpreted, respected.This year, the breeze was kind—steady, manageable. Yet the magic was all there. ✨ There’s something truly unique about this race.Something that every sailor, sooner or later, dreams of experiencing. @rolex@skysports.#TheBoatShow #RolexMiddleSeaRace #SailingPassion #MediterraneanMagic #RacingSpirit #SailLife #YachtingWorld #FromSeaToSky

The RORC's annual classic was not only as popular as ever, but delivered some of the closest racing across the fleet that the event has seen in 17 editions. Hot foot from a round the world blast, Dee Caffari talks to Matt Sheahan about how this year's event panned out and what caught her eye.
Oggi vi mostriamo un lato meno conosciuto, ovvero quello delle notti. Cosa succede di notte? Nello specifico, ieri abbiamo ammainato una vela importante, la grande blu. Anche se il vento potenzialmente era ancora sostenibile, la notte vincono la prudenza e la prevenzione. Nessuno ci sta correndo dietro, da giustificare un azzardo. Quindi dopo un luuuungo confronto abbiamo optato per tirarla giù. Abbiamo aspettato di essere a cavallo tra due turni (alle 2 precisamente) perché è il momento in cui ci sono 4 persone in piedi nello stesso momento e questo significa migliore gestione e maggiore sicurezza. Naturalmente dopo questa operazione la velocità di avanzamento è diminuita (il grande blu è il numero 1) ma noi abbiamo potuto dormire sonni tranquilli. Con il secondo turno vediamo l’alba, sempre da togliere il fiato. Spesso le persone mi dicono di preferire i tramonti perché semplicemente ne vedono di più. Io penso il contrario per la stessa ragione. L’alba è un momento delicato, privato. È riservata a coloro che sono disposti a sacrificare una parte del loro sonno per assistervi. L’alba non è per tutti, proprio come non lo sono le persone di valore. Bisogna saperle comprendere entrambe. Solo in questo modo entrambe possono regalarti doni insostituibili. Come quello di stamattina. 🌅 Come sempre, A domani Cami
