RSHYR 2025 | Celestial V70 – After winning IRC Overall winner at last year’s race, skipper Sam Haynes conceded that this race would most likely be a small boat race. Any chance of an overall win was crueled by an entire night in a windless Derwent River.

In de Griekse Cycladen ligt het eiland Naxos. En in het noorden vind je het kustdorp Apollonas, met de bekende witte huizen uit de Cycladen. En daar vlak achter, best wel verscholen, een marmergroeve uit de anieke oudheid. Want Naxos staat bekend om het marmer dat hier gedolven wordt en werd sinds de oudheid. Daar ligt een enorme, onvoltooide Kouros: een mannenbeeld uit de 6e eeuw v.Chr., uitgehouwen in Naxisch marmer, dat maar liefst elf meter lang is. Dit beeld wordt ook wel de Kolossus van Dionysus genoemd. Bij het hoofd zie je dat er scheuren in het marmer zitten en daarom is het beeld dat eigenlijk bijna af was, vermoedelijk hier achter gebleven. Voor ons in de 21ste eeuw een geluk, dat we dus zo’n beeld nog kunnen bewonderen!
