Cruising sailors tend to prefer things like swimming from their boat; Racing sailors prefer the water on top of their boat instead; They will spend as much money on sails as their boat is worth; They will sail so close together you could jump to the next boat; They will remove their dodger so they can fully enjoy all that water on top of their boat; They will crawl onto a pitching foredeck to lash down a sail because they don’t have a furler; They will climb onto the boom to install a reef line so they don’t have to slow the boat down; They will fly a spinnaker in 20 knots of wind or more; They won’t even bother taking down their own spinnaker, and will just let God do it; And they will do all of this whether it’s day or night, regardless of whether they can see or not; All for getting their boat’s name engraved on some stupid trophy, and getting some yellow flags to boast about their accomplishments, and for some unforgettable moments with friends - priceless!!!

Captain Scott “Red” Flowers set a new record for completing the Great Loop, a 6,000-mile journey around the eastern U.S. in just 19 days, 19 hours, and 50 minutes. This remarkable feat was achieved while raising nearly $500,000 for pediatric cancer research, inspired by his own battle with stage-4 melanoma. The groundbreaking Sharrow X10 propeller significantly boosted performance, increasing fuel efficiency and top speeds.

Experience the awe and wonder of the world’s southernmost continent. A vast, harshly beautiful land where the silence of creaking ice is broken by humpback whales surfacing as you slip past on one of the most luxurious vessels ever to cruise these waters. Heading off the beaten track doesn’t quite describe the once-in-a-lifetime experience of chartering 91.5m Tranquility in Antarctica with Camper & Nicholsons. From December 2023 until February 2024 Tranquility will be welcoming guests onboard to explore Antarctica’s frozen beauty and witness the region’s extraordinary wildlife in unparalleled luxury. Launched in 2014 by Oceanco, Tranquility is well equipped for the harsh conditions of the Southern Ocean. It has a cruising range of 5,000 nautical miles, is certified to Lloyd’s Ice Class E, and has state-of-the-art navigational equipment with sonars for detecting uncharted rocks and ice growlers. Tranquility joins a growing number of superyachts journeying to the far reaches of the planet to satisfy an increasing appetite for adventurous cruising. “We are all seeing a desire from clients to venture to these distant “untouched” parts of the world. Charter has evolved.” explains Charter Manager Nicole Terry. “Guests want to explore and have these once-in-a-lifetime experiences in parts of the world that only a superyacht can take you, and of course Tranquility is more than happy to oblige!” Clients can expect to be awed by “the majestic untouched nature, the solitude, the silence, and the feeling of entering another world,” explains Tranquility’s Captain Jan Rautawaara, who is no stranger to these waters. “Being able to visit remote, desolate places, and to see some extraordinary wildlife is a true adventure,” he adds, hoping that bringing guests on an Antarctic expedition will “broaden our own understanding of nature and make us realise how important it is to preserve this fragile life around us.” Tranquility will be available for charter in Antarctica from $1,600,000 per week from early December 2023 – late February 2024.

Article complet dans Multicoques Mag N°224 : https://www.multicoques-mag.com/dossiers-catamaran-trimaran/echappee-belle-nautitech-un-rendez-vous-de-proprietaires-en-martinique ► Le constructeur Nautitech et le concessionnaire Néo Marine (basé au Marin), ont organisé la quatrième édition des Echappées Belles, un rendez-vous réservé aux Propriétaires de Nautitech. 10 catamarans ont répondu à l’invitation en Martinique au tout début du mois de février. Si l’alizé ne s’est pas montré très vigoureux, réduisant à portion congrue les régates à la voile au profit de convoyages au moteur, la bonne humeur était bien au rendez-vous. L’objectif des Echappées Belles est d’ailleurs avant tout de passer un moment convivial, de s’amuser sur l’eau, de profiter de belles escales tout en rencontrant de nouveaux équipages, de découvrir des spécialités locales et de partager des anecdotes, des histoires de mer. Cette rencontre est également l’occasion de connecter l’équipe du chantier avec celle d’un concessionnaire de la marque et des Propriétaires.
