Our oceans are dying and sailors can make a change!

We met with a Marine Biologist, Frida Sanchez at Boot Düsseldorf boat show to discuss some important questions to help sailors understand our affect on our oceans.

Earth's oceans are vast. Covering more than 70% of the planet's surface! Oceans are the backbone to our ecosystems, our planet only works with healthy oceans. Right now, they are acutely endangered, in need of help and sailors can play a big part in helping to protect our oceans.

Many thanks for our time with the German Ocean Foundation @deutschemeeresstiftung for this video. Follow them on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/deutschemeeresstiftung

The German Ocean Foundation creates synergies of knowledge and action by involving science, economy, politics and society, specifically youth to overcome the present vulnerable climate and create a strong voice for our oceans.

Sail Hub's race report and everything you need to know about the inspiring 2023 famous event. To get you up to speed on the highlights, wet your appetite to tune in or even compete next time round in 2025.

2023 saw the 50th celebration of the iconic Rolex Fastnet Race.

Epic conditions, Records broken & Extreme rescues. We saw competitors race head to head for a piece of heritage; the Fastnet Challenge Cup being won by Max Klink’s Swiss Yacht CARO, who’d recruited British tactician Adrian Stead.

Racing from Cowes, UK to Cherbourg, France via the challenging Fastnet Rock, Ireland. Extreme conditions at the start proved the race to be a true endurance test for the crew and boats a-like.

Swan are well renowned for leading the pack, a next level approach to boat building. A Whitbread sailors dream, just look at the OGR, it was a Swanfest! They can clearly make a good boat. Oh, they also made the first leisure vessel that sailed to the Arctic too, but the question is have they gone too far?

Fancy composite nomex cored interiors, furling mainsails, hydraulic controlls and dressed in dyneema. For the environmantalists out there, they are still using teak. Is this the furure of cruising? Or just a step too far, find out what we think about it all, it wasnt what we expected!

Friction rings… How to use them! Need more deck/ running rigging organisation but on a small budget? Or have you heard about friction rings but have no clue how to use or what they are? Or maybe they’ve taken your fancy in the chandlery due to their slick, sexy style or even their appealing price tag compared to blocks!
Well…you’re in the right place.

We share with you the advantages and the limitations of friction rings and where we’d recommend using them or perhaps more to the point where not to use them….
