J109 Going to Red was finding it hard to avoid the Cork 1720's who where sailing a different course with shared marks on the final day of Volvo Cork Week 2024. After ducking one starboard tacker it looked like they were clear until another one flicked over and call STARBOARD. The skipper on the J109 gave him the option to let them cross or get leebowed which would have destroyed both there races. Luckily common sense prevailed and both boats got to separate and finish there separate races. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024.

Today has been a good day. Pretty chill, but productive. I managed to check most things off the list. I did two sextant observations, made some videos, got my workout in, and kept up with the normal sailing routine. One of those days where nothing dramatic happens, but a lot of small things get done. I did feel a bit lower on energy today. My period is about to come, and I can definitely feel it. A little more tired, a little less drive than usual. But honestly, I’m still happy with how the day went. Even without full energy, I still did what I needed to do. I’ve been eating good food, sailing well, and taking care of the boat. Just doing the job, one day at a time. What’s a bit crazy is that I’m starting to see the end of the trip now. It’s beginning to feel real that this crossing won’t last forever. I’m trying not to focus on that too much though. Because the moment I start thinking too much about arrival, I start counting days… and that pulls me away from what I’m actually doing out here. So for now the plan is simple: just stay here, stay present, and keep doing the next small thing that needs to be done. And today, that worked pretty well. 🌊 ⚓ Life on the Showgirl is my journey toward one of the toughest solo sailing races on the planet: the Golden Globe Race — sailed solo, non-stop, and without modern technology. Follow along as I learn, prepare, and chase a dream that feels bigger than me. ------------------------------------------ New videos EVERY 7th of the month ------------------------------------------ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!!: https://www.patreon.com/classicmara ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/classicmara_/ __________________________ Support me: PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/helgamarielk Vipps: 39088 - Classic Mara Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/griedy1 GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/173a9a5e6 __________________________ Affiliate links: Dakota Lithium Batteries: https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=79634&awinaffid=2732466&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dakotalithium.com Orca Navigation System: https://getorca.com/?via=classicmara PitViper: https://www.pitviper.com/discount/CLASSICMARA?redirect=%2F&utm_campaign=money%2Bcounters&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=upfluence

Visibility is Safety. On the new Formula 360 CBR OB, the first thing our captains noticed at the helm isn't just the tech—it’s the glass. Formula’s massive, curved windshield isn't just a design statement; it’s an ergonomic win. By eliminating bulky frame obstructions and utilizing precision-curved glass, they’ve created 360-degree sightlines that are critical when you’re carving turns on that FAS3Tech® hull. It’s clear, unobstructed, and exactly what we look for in a premium crossover. 🛥️💨 Watch our full test ⬇️ #BoatTEST #FormulaBoats #360CBR #Boattestreview #bowrider #outboardboat #luxurydayboat #americanmade #formula360CBR
