Say hello to Stormvogel; a timeless offshore icon and now the standout classic in our growing fleet. She's not just graceful; she's formidable too. In the 2023 Rolex Fastnet Race, Stormvogel claimed 6th in IRC Zero (and placed 11th overall in IRC) from a massive field of 358 starters. Launched in 1961, Stormvogel was one of the world's first lightweight maxis-designed by Van de Stadt, with input from Laurent Giles-and built of cold-moulded wood. She won Line Honours in her first-ever Fastnet, and over six decades later continues to sail-and compete-with unwavering spirit. With more than 50 entries now confirmed and less than 2 months remaining until the 2025 Rolex Middle Sea Race, anticipation is building. @rolexmiddlesearace
During those rare, uneventful passages—the ones where the boat behaves, the seas behave, and even the coffee behaves—you’d think a skipper could kick back, relax, and watch the world drift by. But no. The moment things get quiet, the skipper brain wakes up like a toddler at 3 a.m. and starts whispering, “Hey… did you notice that thing that needs fixing? And that other thing? And that other other thing?” Before you know it, the peaceful passage has turned into a floating scavenger hunt of future chores. That’s how every skipper’s “To Do” list is born. It starts the day you buy the boat and it will outlive you, your children, and possibly the boatyard itself. This was our short list of “Moments in Time” tasks waiting for us back in Solomons. The good news: we knocked out the whole list. The bad news: naturally, a brand new list immediately spawned in its place. On a boat, the To Do list is like a hydra—check off one item and two more grow back. But hey… that’s boating. And we wouldn’t trade it for anything. Subscribe and share in our adventure!
