Imagine a long weekend - 4 days of sailing, guided summit hikes, food experiences, deep fjords and delicious dramatic mountains covered in powder snow. This is what Explore 62 North can offer you and your friends. The sailboat Westland is the basecamp for four days packed with experiences for us who are going on a trip. Here we live and sleep. In the morning the crashing of waves, the sound of seabirds and the smell of freshly brewed coffee awakens us.

► Full test in Multihulls World N°202: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/dragonfly-36-performance-for-gliding-along-as-fast-as-the-wind ► While boot Düsseldorf, the world’s largest indoor boat show, might not be bursting at the seams with sail-cruising multihulls, the 2025 edition of the event is nonetheless the setting for an unmissable preview - we’re talking about the Dragonfly 36! Quorning Boats has always been a staunch supporter of this German boat show – in fact, 5 years ago, it was here that the manufacturer’s previous new model, the Dragonfly 40, was unveiled. But back to the 36: This trimaran, which can still be folded thanks to its further optimized Swing Wing system, has taken two and a half years to develop. In terms of design, this all-new model is the first Dragonfly to feature three inverted bows - until now, the central hull has always retained a traditional bow shape. Unsurprisingly, the 36 is available in both Touring and Performance versions, the latter having a rig 2 meters (6½ feet) taller. What’s more unusual is that the profile is in carbon on both models. Below deck, the new interior design features double cabins forward and aft, a separate bathroom, a fully equipped galley and a spacious saloon. The standard finish is in ash, with elm as an option. By the time we visited, on day 3 of the boat show, the yard had already taken 15 orders. The Dragonfly 36 is looking like a best-seller... We’ve already made an appointment for a test sail. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Quorning Boats Architects: Olsen Design/Quorning Boats ApS Length: 37’11”/44’1” (11.55/13.43 m) Beam: 26’8”/12’2” (8.12/3.7 m) Waterline length: 35’9” (10.9 m) Draft: 2’2”/6’7” (0.67/2 m) Light displacement: 9,925 lbs (4.5 t) Mainsail: 645 or 753 sq ft (60 or 70 m²) Self-tacking jib: 215 or 269 sq ft (20 or 25 m²) Genoa: 323 or 414 sq ft (30 or 38.5 m²) Gennaker: 1,184 or 1,615 sq ft (110 or 150 m²) Motor: 30 or 40 HP Fuel: 23 US gal (90 l) Water: 52 US gal (200 l) CE Category: A5/B7 ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

On my third research journey up the length of Japan, I’ve returned to Matsue Castle in Shimane Prefecture — the region that’s ranked number one in Japan for twelve consecutive years for the number of centenarians per 100,000 people. Just 48 hours ago, I left my boat in Amami, flew to Tokyo to surprise my son on his birthday, and then took two long trains to reach Shimane, where I’ll be spending the week writing, soaking up the atmosphere, and conducting more interviews for my upcoming book on longevity and community in Japan. A longer video is coming soon with updates from the past few months — including some sailing adventures — but for now, here’s a glimpse of where the next chapter of this journey unfolds. Remember, it’s never too late to get out and about.

We purchased a Leopard 45 Catamaran to sail around the world. Our channel documents our thought and decision making processes with regards to the preparations of getting her kitted out for our needs. We want to visit off the beaten track places and need to prepare for ice bergs, storms, heavy seas, as well as nice tranquil tropical waters... Follow us on our journey, of which we've done more than 20 000 miles already. Our wish is that you may hopefully live vicariously through our adventures, or take some valuable information with you that might assist you in your endeavors some day.
