We leave our wonderful anchorage on the remote island of Pulau Matasirih with the wind directly behind us so we pole out genoa and use our boom to pole out the staysail leaving both the mainsail and mizzen furled away. This sail plan has proved very effective force when sailing deep downwind.

CAMBRIA (along with her 75-feet waterline length cousins ASTRA and CANDIDA, the first three ‘Big Class’ yachts to be bermudan-rigged from launch) has long been dubbed a 23-Metre. However, while designed to rate around that figure under the International Rule, a key element of her survival into the 21st Century – still a magnificent racer-cruiser; every sweet William Fife III curve still in place while supporting perhaps the tallest of all truly wooden masts – is her stout original construction to Lloyd’s then highest specifications for wood and wood-composite yachts, rather than to the lighter International Rule scantlings. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/792/william-fife-iii-111ft-big-class-cutter-19282016 Thus CAMBRIA, adored, maintained and respected for most of her life, has remarkably never required a total rebuild restoration. Her soul remains intact through recent major refits “sympathetic to her origins and respectful of her history”, and this is immediately apparent on first stepping aboard this happy, beautiful, historic, and very special classic yacht.

Balade du 20 decembre.... Soleil, calme au port du Cap d'Agde, et puis je me suis retrouve avec 24 noeuds et une houle importante. Vu l'état des voiles j'ai pris la décission d'installer un Lazy Jack.

Here is another one of the interludes I produced for the Top The Bill public screens installed around Port Vila, Santo & Noumea around 2006-2010. This one shows some parts of the unique “Back to My Roots Festival” held annually in Olal on North Ambrym.
