Escape hatches have sunk boats before! We should have done this ages ago. If one fails we can put these covers in place and we won't have anything to worry about. We also replace our mainsail sheet, as the old one had served it's time! Just a few of all the maintenance jobs on our Sailing Catamaran Roxy.

Wind changed overnight to a strong southern breeze and after a mooring ball failed a yacht hit the reef and sank in from of me in seconds... So sad..

Five competitive racing sailboats rush toward the same turning mark — and things get wild fast. One boat cuts in too close, forcing the others to swerve violently. Splashes hit the lens, sails slam, crews shout — pure racing tension! If you love real sailing moments, ocean adrenaline, and race drama… this one’s for you. 🌊🔥 #Sailing #SailingRace #YachtRacing #SailingLife #BoatFails #RaceDrama #GoProFootage #OceanAdventure

PURITAN is quite simply a #legend. She beautifully carries before her the spirit of America’s ‘Gilded Age’, was one of the earliest participants in the ‘Classic Yacht Revival’, and has continued evangelistically to spread the word for over four #decades, with alumni becoming key players; disciples even. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/688/PURITAN Built from the highest grade of steel then available by a shipyard set up to build submarines for the US Navy - and infused with the DNA of some of the finest American schooners - the care that went into PURITAN’s design and build, her ease of sailing and motion, and her spacious yet intimate accommodations have always guaranteed lovers, even when her chips were seriously down in the late 1960s. Mediterranean-based for most of the past 30 years, PURITAN has been enjoyed since 2015 in current ownership as a successful MCA-coded charter yacht and summertime family cruiser - with her centreboard-up draft allowing access to anchorages and harbours other yachts of her size can't reach.
