After plans for joining a boat for the Volvo Round Ireland Race fell through, we were determined to get out and get some footage of some of the leading boats passing down through the Irish Sea. At around 2000 on Sunday night we headed out in 20 knots of breeze in a 6M Rib to try catch the 3 MOD70's which were competing, But unfortunately these were just too fast. Our next target was to try catch George David's Juan K Canting Keel Rambler 88 the next morning. We set off at around 5am in light winds and headed North to meet the boat as it passed The Maidens off Larne. We stayed with the boat for around 30 minutes and even though the breeze was only a Force 3, Rambler still was racing along at around 14 knots. We are interested in getting involved with some offshore sailing for the 2017/2018 season. As well as event coverage we'd love to sponsor a yacht for an online media campaign, including video, photography and social media. Get in touch via info@sixnineone.co for a chat about what we can do for you.

Starling Burgess got it so right with his 1928 design for the 59ft staysail schooner NIÑA. When her present owners decided to build a replica in 2004, the only change was to the construction method - strip plank rather than traditional plank of frame. Burgess's hull and rig design were sensibly faithfully reproduced resulting in one of the most perfect blue water cruisers for her size imaginable.
