As the 48th Rolex Fastnet Race moves through its fourth day, the flood of arrivals continues. The window of opportunity for those pursuing overall victory is narrowing and, after four days, crews still at sea are beginning to tire. Finishing well is dependent upon full commitment to performing at the best of one's ability and remaining resolute until the finish. The American yacht Wizard is currently in top spot, but the prevailing characteristic of Rolex Fastnet Race crews is to persevere to the very end, meaning the result remains in the balance. Nearly a century old, the Rolex Fastnet Race remains one the most inspiring and recognizable offshore racecourses in the world. Supported by Rolex since 2001, the race is organized by the Royal Ocean Racing Club, and the 2019 race has attracted a record fleet of 388 yachts ready and willing to test themselves against one of the toughest of offshore races.

Lady Mona K, built in 1986 by Dutch shipyard Amels, was a real ground-breaking yacht for her time and continues to be a luxury leader today. With a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, she features naval architecture by Diana Yacht Design and interior and exterior design from the sketch book of Jon Bannenberg. This twin screw superyacht measures 57.7 metres and can accommodate up to 12 guests. Originally christened with the name Lady Ghislaine, there is no doubt that she is the work of the late Jon Bannenberg with her distinctive sculpted mast complex, vertical windows and mullions, lozenge-shaped ports and well-flared bow. Her design features bold use of symmetry and asymmetry that results in unique spaced that manage create a feeling of intimacy despite their generous spaciousness. One of the highlights of her design is an upper deck gymnasium that can be kept open or completely enclosed. Another attractive feat owed to the brilliance of Bannenberg is a clever use of space that allows for much more internal volume one would expect, evident in the grand observation lounge found forward on the upper deck or the generous accommodations located below. Amongst her six cabins are a lavish master stateroom; four double cabins; and one twin cabin. Luxury yacht Lady Mona K is powered by two Caterpillar 3516 DI-TA engines that allow her to reach a maximum speed of 15.5 knots. She can achieve a range of 3,800 nautical miles while cruising at a speed of 14 knots. Lady Mona K has been built Lloyd’s Register classification.
