It was two years ago in May. I was teaching an instructional passage, and we were in Bermuda waiting for weather to allow us to continue north to Newport. Of course, we knew that the America’s Cup was happening. Still, the absolute mind-boggling spectacle of seeing those boats…..doing that! As we entered the outer bay near Hamilton, there, right in front of us, was Oracle, sitting in the water, getting coached up by her chase boats. Now not more than 40-50 yards away, the crew trimmed in the wing sail. The boat lurched a little, started moving….then bam! Like the Starship Enterprise in the Star Trek movies, it popped up, onto its’ foils, and was off at nearly 40 knots. Warp speed Scotty!

Cambio del alternador!⚙️🦾🧑‍🔧 Tuvimos que cambiar el alternador en la travesía de Canarias a Cabo Verde,…y ahora parece que todo funciona algo mejor, pero tampoco notamos mucho la diferencia. Seguramente, para nuestra próxima travesía de larga distancia, apostaremos en comprar por un generador pequeño, ya que será más potente, más rápido, y menos tiempo de uso.⛵️ . . . #sailing_lasonambula #atardecer #alternador #sunset #sailingintheworld #sailing #sailing⛵️ #veleros #velero #sail #follow #tiktok #ig #igers #caribe #loveyoutiktok #trending #viral #funny #love #music #happy #atlanticcrossing #loveyou #photography

The long anticipated premier of the first two MC31s to hit the water played out in today’s passage race between Melbourne and Geelong for the start of the Geelong Festival of Sails. With John Taylor’s Vindaloo and Rohan Veal’s 38 South Racing sailing their respective boats quite literally ‘straight out of the box’ – Rohan’s sails arrived in Melbourne this morning – both skippers were delighted with their first outing, and are looking forward to using their kites tomorrow, after an upwind race today.
