This video was taken by the skipper of a 54ft yacht in the Caribbean. The situation was that the skipper questioned the legendary speed under sail of the Shearwater 45, so Steve Hunt, the owner of "Maggy May", challenged him to a race to the next island and gave him a head-start of nearly 40 minutes. This was taken as the 45 sailed past him. It continued through his lee and arrived in port an hour ahead of the 54. See more info at http://dixdesign.com/sh45.htm .

What do you get when you mix Cold War espionage, an 80-year-old warbird, and a pilot crazy enough to hijack his own airplane to escape communism? In this video, I fly Mira Slovak’s original Bücker Jungmann, a legendary German-designed WWII-era biplane with an unbelievable backstory. From Cold War defection to aerobatic stunts, this flight is packed with cinematic footage, vintage aircraft vibes, and a slice of aviation history you’ve probably never heard. Miroslav “Mira” Slovak was a Czech Airlines pilot who hijacked his own plane in 1953 to flee the Soviet regime, eventually becoming a U.S. citizen, air race champion, and aerobatic pilot. His story is straight out of a movie—and now, his historic airplane lives on. We took this 1930s warbird to the skies for a day of vintage aerobatics, tailwheel flying, and breathtaking air-to-air shots. Whether you’re into vintage planes, Cold War history, general aviation, or just love epic flying footage, this one’s for you.

This video actually was my first event YT short shot in Miyazaki two years ago. But as today is Marine Day in Japan, a national holiday, and I have just arrived in Tokyo for work, I am reposting this to celebrate the ocean!

Take a look back at the 2021 Paris Boat Show ⛵️ and a selection of the sailboats and motorboats (Beneteau, White Shark, Lomac, Joker Boat, Targa, X-Yachts, etc) that were not to be missed. Sea trial of the incredible #Capelli Stradivari 43, an Italian rib full of charm! Traditional sailing and motor yachting with the most beautiful highlights of the Monaco Classic Week. @YamahaMotorFr @YachtClubMonaco
