Emirates Team New Zealand, the Defenders of the America’s Cup, wasted no time getting ‘Te Rehutai’ out sailing on the waters off Barcelona on Friday, a day earlier than scheduled thanks to a favourable forecast and typically efficient shore crew hitting the ground running and re-rigging the AC75 just days after arriving in the city themselves. #AC37Recon #Shorts Subscribe to the official America's Cup channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/americascup Like America’s Cup On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/americascup Follow America’s Cup On Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/americascup Follow America’s Cup On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/americascup Stay up to date with the America’s Cup newsletter: https://www.americascup.com/en/newsletter The 37th America's Cup will be Defended in Barcelona by four-time America's Cup winner, the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron represented by their team, Emirates Team New Zealand. #AmericasCup #AC37 #Barcelona2024
The bird Island race was also the first test for the new bow pole extension for Anthony Bell’s Perpetual Loyal recently completed by the McConaghy team in Sydney. Racing back from Bird Island on Saturday afternoon Perpetual Loyal launched the new A2 Spinnaker which was delivered by North Sails in Mona Vale on Saturday morning. Measuring over 1000m2 in area the new sail and longer bow pole combination will help Perpetual Loyal surf her way to Hobart with pro surfer Sally Fitzgibbons at the helm. Video here. McConaghy have also recently completed some modifications to the under water appendages designed by Juan Yacht Design.
From our Komodo to East of Flores Cruise in September/October 2014. We could get really close to groups of 4-8 huge whales. This was the moment to try out something new and Jos and me stepped into a kayak and paddled slowly out to one of the groups of logging whales. Not at all disturbed by us, we came in touching distance and quietly I slipped into the water and inched my way closer to the 3 whales.

Is this the world’s strangest luxury? Nestled in the neon chaos of Bangkok’s Yaowarat, you’ll find vendors serving this ancient mystery: Bird’s Nest drink. It’s a staple of traditional recipes and food history. For centuries, this "liquid gold" was so rare and expensive it was reserved only for Emperors. The secret? It’s made from the hardened saliva of swiftlets found in limestone caves. Known in culinary anthropology as an elixir for health and skin, it’s now a accessible piece of food heritage you can enjoy on a plastic stool for just a few dollars. It’s sweet, refreshing, and a must-try for any curious soul. Now be honest: Knowing what it’s made of... would you take a sip?
