Perfect weather conditions, and Sardinia at its best, marked the first day on the water at the Giorgio Armani Superyacht Regatta, an event organised by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda with the support of Title Sponsor Giorgio Armani. Nauta 100, Morgana, leads after day one. It was a marvellous start for participants in the Southern Wind Rendezvous.

This is your weekly global sailing highlights show, the World on Water, June 07, 2024.

It was the sort of conditions that make racing sailors salivate: 18 knots true with 24 knots gusts, blue skies, temperate airs, a moderate chop for Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli making it a stop/start kind of day with technical issues on the boat as the top end conditions bit. So fine-tuned are the A C 75's that any tiny component that isn’t absolutely 100% can mean the end of your day. Just like Formula 1, it’s either all-on or all off.Jimmy is showing his "True Aussie Heritage" as he answers the interviewers questions.

Boris Herrmann's motto for the 2024 New York to Vondee Transat was Go Big or Go Home!
Boris said 'it's super hard to make this kind of decision when you're alone!'.
Here is an explanation for all the people glued to the tracker and wondering why Boris is going so far North!

Also out in the top range wind conditions in Barcelona with Luna Rossa was the American Challenger, American Magic Patriot. They also had their share of hydraulics problems but all in all they reported that the new boat was much lighter than their previous boat. They are very happy with where they sit.

Beers, showers and flat beds! After almost four weeks at sea in the Clipper Race there was some very happy faces to be docking alongside in Flamenco Island Marina. Now, it's to get ready to transit the Panama Canal, and into the last section of their round the world race.

Water and land - stage and regatta course: that is the Kiel Week. It is a shared journey of discovery with unique encounters and surprises. Let yourself drift and experience your very own Kiel Week moment.
Anticipation is the best: the next Kiel Week awaits you from June 22 to 30, 2024.
