In this video we’re sailing upwind in 30+ knots of breeze in Johnstone Strait during the VanIsle360 race with a double-reefed main sail and #3 jib. Lots of sails were destroyed in that leg, including the #3 jib we’re flying in the video.

Split is the second-largest city in Croatia and the largest one on the Dalmatian coast, so it stands to reason that you will have a blast when visiting. This historic city dates back some 1,700 years, with Diocletian's Palace sitting at the centre of its history and Old Town. This impressive waterfront city is the perfect starting point for all your adventures along the coast, however it is also well worth some dedicated time to explore all the city has to offer. Here are our must-do things in Split: 1. Visit Diocletian's Palace - built in the 4th Century by Roman Emperor, Diocletian, the palace is now UNESCO Protected and is one of the best-preserved examples of Roman architecture. 2. Climb the bell tower at the Cathedral of St. Dominus and take in the incredible views of the Old Town, Marjan Hill and surrounding islands 3. Sip coffee and people watch on the Riva Promenade; a waterfront city location featuring palm trees and polished marble floors 4. Wine and dine at Republic Square 5. Rub the toe of the Grgur Ninski statue located just outside the palace walls, which is rumoured to bring good luck! 6. Climb Marjan Hill for beautiful views across the city of Split. The park is full of pine trees, walking trails and even a small local zoo!

J109 GTR beating up the shore to stay out of the tide shortly after the start of the Harbour Race of Cork Week 2024. With over 100 boats on the start line everyone was fighting for air shortly after the start, with the tide coming in all day it paid to get right early to find both clear air and some relief from the stronger tide out in the main channel. The skipper on RS 21 Dark and Stormy was not happy with the call as they wanted to head in further, we are glad they tacked when they did as we got down to less the 3 feet under the keel shortly after the tack. The team at Bottom Up Boats hope you like this short clip from our week of racing at Volvo Cork Week 2024

Radar and navigation systems can be unreliable. See how B&G systems fail to give proper warnings and accurate data, especially when things get tough. Critical viewing for safe navigation. #RadarFail #NavigationSystem #BoatingSafety #Sailing
