The Royal Malta Yacht Club hosted its second race of the 2025 season on Saturday evening, when the Thomas Smith Triple Handed Night Race took place. The short handed race began in very light winds, with a shifty breeze and an easterly swell setting the stage for a testing night on the water. As the fleet made its way up the coast, towards the tuna pens outside St. Paul’s Bay, competitors had to navigate higher angles, gybe frequently, and deal with unpredictable wind conditions, particularly close to the fish farms which had to be navigated by most in pitch dark.

On our northward trek, I would like to avoid overnight passages if possible. So I discussed with Ian and an on board, and we plan to pull into Ieshima, which we plan to visit for a night, and possibly Yoron the next day. I aim to get to Sakurajima for my birthday on March 20th and then follow the cherry blossoms north. #PacificSolo #NeverTooLateAcademy #NorthwardTrek #ieshima shima #Yoron #Sakurajima #CherryBlossoms #sailing #japan #Ieshima
