is racing still fun?

In this week’s podcast, Tempesta once again bores you with more J/105 nonsense, crowing about winning a couple of races, but then inexplicably veers into asking if racing is still fun for you. He then ridiculously tries to define what is fun, as if he knows.

His voice is shot, his brain is mush. Embarrassing, really. If you have absolutely nothing else to do, give it a listen.

The Environment

An orca repeatedly rammed a yacht in the North Sea off Shetland on Monday, in a concerning development following previous interactions between the cetaceans and vessels in the strait of Gibraltar and Portugal.

Dr Wim Rutten, a 72-year-old retired Dutch physicist and experienced yachtsperson, was sailing solo from Lerwick to Bergen in Norway. He was fishing for mackerel, with a single line off the back of the boat, when the orca suddenly appeared in the clear water, and hit the stern of the seven-ton boat.

“I said: ‘Shit!’” Rutten, who said he had heard about the “Portuguese accidents”, told the Guardian. The whale hit again and again, creating “soft shocks” through the aluminum hull. Read on.

Elapsed record for Marion Bermuda Race

Monday

2023
Posted by XS Editor

(June 19, 2023) – Early this morning, Richard Moody’s Boudicca crossed the Marion Bermuda Race finish line off of St. David’s Lighthouse, having completed the 645 nm course in 2 days, 17 hours, 26 minutes, 27 seconds.

This elapsed time beats the previous record set in 2011 by the 76-foot Briand sloop Lilla, owned by Simon and Nancy DiPietro, which was 2 days, 20 hours, 58 minutes, 45 seconds.

Boudicca is a King Marine Reichel-Pugh 66 based out of Jamestown, RI. Boudicca sailed in the performance class, a new addition to the Marion Bermuda Race for 2023 that looked to expand race eligibility to more performance-focused cruising vessels. The new class has four entries this year.

After the start on June 16, the majority of the fleet is haggling with light wind and low boat speed as they have crossed or are crossing the Gulf Stream. The X49 Lyric, currently in second place, has approximately 201 nm to go as of 1100 EDT.

Slow progress for The Ocean Race

Monday

2023
Posted by XS Editor

(June 19, 2023; Day 5) – The Ocean Race is being led by the VO65s that lead the charge south, towards Cape Finisterre and the coast of Portugal. However, boat speeds are often under 10 knots and the choice for the decision-makers on board is bleak – push south into lighter winds, or further west, away from the target.

“It’s looking very quiet, not so much wind… very slow,” was the succinct summary from Nico Lunven on Team Malizia.

While Yoann Richomme, leading the navigation duties on the IMOCA furthest to the south – Team Holcim-PRB – offered up a more vivid description, even if the ultimate conclusion is the same.

“We are in the middle of the Bay of Biscay, going west – west – to get away from some light winds between France and Spain,” he said. “Then we are going to try to go down south along the coast of Portugal. it will be light this afternoon, then a little bit windier as we turn south to go down but then Portugal looks very, very light.”

The story is similar no matter which of the five VO65s or three IMOCAs you are racing on. It’s a challenge to pick a route south that has enough wind to keep the boat moving consistently. Today, gambling on a spot further west seems to be paying…

Posted by XS Editor

The 7th edition of the 750 mile Race to Alaska (R2AK) began June 5 with a 40-mile “proving stage” from Port Townsend, WA to Victoria, BC. For those that finished within 36 hours, they were allowed to start the remaining 710 miles on June 8 to Ketchikan, AK. Here’s the Stage 2/Day 7 report:

Team We Brake for Whales crossed the finish line around 7am local time (June 14), finishing the race in 5 days, 18 hours, 59 minutes. The crowd cheered as they crossed the line, then pedaled, and pedaled, and pedaled into the dock. The seldom-seen, final invisible adversary was the outgoing current from the creek that flows out through Thomas Basin.

Hugs and laughs abound, a snuggle of a baby, then they rang the bell and drank/NASCAR-showered in beer and champagne as is the custom of all R2AK finishers.

Cameras of the local TV and newspaper were on the dock ready to roll in “3, 2, 1” and the local radio station could only have been more excited about a live finish during drive time if Ketchikan had more than 30 miles of roads end to end. Friends and family from down south, Hunter ‘The Kilt Guy’, and the rest of KTN regulars all crowded in to wish them well. It was part reunion, part laughter fused recounting of a race well run…

The Russell Report: SailGP, Season 4

Monday

Posted by XS Editor

Since the third season of SailGP came to a close in San Francisco, the fleet of F50s has grown in anticipation of the new season on June 16-17. SailGP CEO Russell Coutts reveals his behind-the-scenes insight of the league and the fleet.


Season 4 opening battle in Chicago is just days away. Season 4 marks SailGP’s best calendar yet, with 12-events and five new iconic cities. The one I’m most excited about is New York. The infrastructure and facilities for the stadium will be on Governors Island away from the skyscrapers, which means the wind will be less disturbed and the fans will be even closer to the action.

The event in the UAE is another one that will bring fans within touching distance of the racing action while Auckland later in the season will be a milestone event – we’re taking somewhat of a risk by staging the event in a fairly narrow part of the channel.

If the breeze goes across the channel it will be very challenging for the teams. We may even consider changing the format for that event – stay tuned! But I’m confident Aucklanders will get beyond the event and the location means people will be able to watch up-close from the shore making the event more accessible to more people.

We have four events in the U.S. which is obviously an important market for SailGP and almost all of our partners. We’ve had great broadcast results there, but that’s just an indication of what can be achieved.

Our broadcast presence in the UK has also taken a significant step up, with ITV picking up the free-to-air broadcast rights. That’s really positive news and is sure to supercharge our audience figures there…

Let’s get this out of the way: we give up.

Deep in the word mines of R2AK, we toil day and night to find the single narrative vein that can put all of this engine-less calamity into context. Threads of truth that we can weave into a rope of content and use to rappel you into the unsounded depths of the experience of Race to Alaska.

Today, we’re emerging to the surface with blunted pick axes, a smear of dust on our face, and the thousand-yard stare of too much time underground without hitting the motherlode. Today we’re showing up to scales with a pocketful of unrelated crystals that we’ll give fancy names, charge by the light of the full moon, and sell to tourists. R2AKinium, good for the liver, increasing blood pressure, and the need for adventure, and lowering expectations of news from the race.

For the seven class winners of the 2023 Annapolis-to-Newport Race, there was a tremendous sense of accomplishment. Simply finishing the 475-nautical classic was a real challenge this time around as horribly brutal conditions in the Atlantic Ocean made for an absolutely miserable experience.

With staggered starts on Friday and Saturday, June 2 and 3, the 39th edition of the biennial race will be remembered for the fact 31 of the 60 starters retired rather than risk damage to boat or crew in extreme conditions offshore.

Most boats pulled the plug while still in the Chesapeake Bay after carefully reviewing the forecast and confirming the worst — the fleet would be welcomed into the ocean by 20 to 30 knot winds and 10-to-12-foot seas. – Full report

The US Sailing Team has confirmed the slate of 14 athletes who will represent the United States at the Paris 2024 Test Event taking place July 7-16, 2013 in Marseille, France. Held a year in advance of the Olympics, the Test Event will closely mirror the Games competition, with each country sending one boat per class.

The Test Event is used as a ‘dress rehearsal’ and will operate in the same format as the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. Test Events traditionally provides event organizers and Olympic authorities the opportunity to test personnel and venue staging, working to eliminate flaws in their plans in the lead up to the Olympic Games.

For the US athletes, the Paris 2024 Test Event is also the first opportunity to earn a nomination to Team USA for Paris 2024…

The 7th edition of the 750 mile Race to Alaska (R2AK) began June 5 with a 40-mile “proving stage” from Port Townsend, WA to Victoria, BC. For those that finish within 36 hours, they are allowed to start the remaining 710 miles on June 8 to Ketchikan, AK. Here’s the Stage 1 conclusion report:

Let’s start with this: We hear you, we know, and we’re sorry. We feel it too.

In an age of internet ubiquity, when AI is poised to anticipate your every need, take your job and ply you with every fact and product ever created, R2AK is stuck in Windows 95. Today’s world operates at the speed of Amazon and Alexa. This year we’re struggling for even Clippy-level performance.

Blame solar flares, Russian hackers seeking revenge for the Ukrainian anthem we played at the start, or a guy named Shane in New Zealand, but one thing can’t be denied: the tracker suuuuucks this year.

It’s not heresy, the pain is real. For us too. Despite rumors and our need to make rent next week, so far there is no R2AK prime premium plus champagne room subscription package that gets you (and/or us) access to 100% reliable, accurate, and up-to-date information.

Our crew is working on it, but right now it looks like there’s a wellspring of suck that lies somewhere between the trackers, the satellite, and a guy named Shane in New Zealand…

Revival planned for Admiral’s Cup

Posted by XS Editor

If you raced under the IOR handicap system, did foredeck with wire guys for symmetrical spinnakers, or remember when ‘N Sync and Madonna topped the charts, then you may recall the demise of the Admiral’s Cup in 2001.

Established in 1957, The Admiral’s Cup was the unofficial world cup for offshore racing, with national teams coming to England with the latest designs for international bragging rights.

Great Britain won the trophy on nine occasions on their home waters, but Germany won four times, USA and Australia three times each, with Australia being the holders of this prized trophy. Victories were also achieved by France, Italy, the Netherlands, and New Zealand.

But with rising stakes, the event burned itself out but a revival is planned for the Admiral’s Cup to be back for 2025 and held biennially thereafter by the Royal Ocean Racing Club.

The 2025 Admiral’s Cup will be organized by the Royal Ocean Racing Club from Cowes, Isle of Wight, UK. Racing will consist of a combination of inshore and offshore racing. Teams will comprise of two boats representing a Yacht Club or Country.

IKA Kitefoil: World’s coolest yachts

Monday

2023
Posted by XS Editor

Yachting World has been asking top sailors and marine industry gurus to choose the coolest and most innovative yachts of our times, and Will Harris, co-skippering the IMOCA 60 Malizia in The Ocean Race, nominated the IKA Kitefoil. Here’s the report:


“Watching the gracefulness of kitefoil racing had me mesmerised the first time I saw it,” explains Will Harris. “It is an example of pure efficiency and use of all and any wind possible. From as low as 4 knots of wind reaching speeds of 30 knots on a 1.2m long board is incredible.”

Kitefoiling is now an Olympic sailing event, and will be making its debut at the 2024 Games. The class is a box rule, with a wide range of approved foil components, and choice of wing sizes. The foil kites use a ‘ram air’ principle so are self-inflating rather than pump-up tube kites.

“The racing looks like the kitefoils are doing a sort of ballet dance on the boards as they manoeuvre the kites and boards under their feet. It requires an unbelievable level of finesse and agility and the reward is pure adrenaline and very close and exciting racing,” adds Harris.

“I do kitefoiling myself and love it every time I go out since it’s made sub-10 knot conditions fun!”

IKA Kitefoil stats rating:
Top speed: 30+ knots
LOA: 1.55m/5ft
Launched: 2018
Berths: 0
Price: £3,000+
Adrenalin factor: 95%

New Boat Review: Excess 14

Wednesday
May 31
2023
Posted by deleteme

For more multihull reviews and stories, subscribe for free to Multihull Power & Sail at sailmagazine.com/multihull

Redesigned hulls, thinner keels, and deeper rudders make for even sportier performance in the new Excess 14.

I first saw Beneteau’s Excess brand of sailing catamarans in 2019 in Düsseldorf, Germany, with a room full of marine journalists, some of whom, like me, weren’t convinced of the brand’s vision. Most were perplexed, some got snarky. The models were based on modified Lagoon designs, and none of line made sense—not the marketing, positioning, or design.

But two years later, Beneteau revamped the brand’s management and messaging and launched the Excess 11, which was new from the keels up. Fast forward another two years and another from-scratch hull in the form of the Excess 14, which made its U.S. debut at the Miami boat show in February, and now it’s safe to say that the brand has evolved and is living up to its initial promise.

The design by VPLP naval architects leans on the firm’s ocean racing expertise. The hulls are asymmetrical, with hull sides that are fuller outboard and flatter inboard. This moves the center of buoyancy outboard for better stability and reduces interference drag between the hulls. The bridgedeck has been raised for better clearance, and the bows are inverted and free of the surface, which makes for more precise steering. By comparison with previous Excess models, the keels are thinner, and the rudders are 8 inches deeper for a better bite and higher pointing ability…

The team then finished Leg 5 this morning, but remains 480 nm from the finish port in Aarhus . The team is making way slowly due to their broken main shroud on the port side of the boat, and is not expected to join the IMOCA fleet before June 3.

After the team lost touch with the leaders soon after the Leg 5 start in Newport, they were mired in a different weather pattern that left them off the pace. Problems with their autopilot and electronics, plus a broken sail lock that dropped their J3 headsail into the water, added to their woe before the shroud break on May 28…

Extraordinary boats: Sam Manuard foiling mini 6.50

Wednesday
May 31
2023
Posted by XS Editor

Xucia is Mini 6.50 #1081, a radical Sam Manuad foiling mini and hydrofoiling iteration of the popular single-handed class. In Yachting World, Rupert Holmes looks at the accelerating pace of change in the Mini 6.50s:


The past few years have seen an explosion of activity in the Mini 6.50 class, with qualifying races for the iconic Mini Transat race oversubscribed by up to 100% and two-year waiting lists for new Series-built boats.

Yet, the front of the fleet is no longer an economic place to go racing. Typical fully equipped prices for new Series (production) builds are around €150,000 ($186k USD), while the bill for new one-off Protos (custom) is well over double that figure, reflecting the costs of full carbon one-off boats that incorporate build knowledge gained from America’s Cup campaigns, plus in some cases the enormous cost of foils.

Historically the class has been a hotbed of innovation. It’s here that twin rudder designs and canting keels were first refined and proven to be reliable, even if some of the latter initially had problems when scaled up to much larger yachts. However, for the past few years almost all new development has been in the lower-powered Series fleet, where scow bows have been the norm for several years…

Genesis for the e-Sailing genre

More than 20 years after the start of the adventure, Philippe Guigné, founder of the famous internet sailing game Virtual Regatta, is leaving the company after selling it in 2021 to online gaming specialist 52 Entertainment. In an interview with BoatNews.com, he answers questions on the company’s success, his plans, and his vision of digital in the boating industry.

How did Virtual Regatta come about? Can you tell us about its origins and rise?
It’s a long story. The company was born under the name Many Players. It all started with a vision of the time, which turned out to be incredibly accurate. Back in 2000, I believed that the Internet would democratize video games. Before, you had to buy cartridges and travel, and with the Internet, all you had to do was download it and you could be playing in minutes.

I’m a former professional sailor, I won the Tour de France in 1997 and I managed it in 1996, when Bruno Troublé took a sabbatical. And my second intuition, having worked as a sports event organizer, is that the Internet will make it possible to do so, without everyone having to go to the same place. This gave rise to e-Sport, which didn’t even have a name at the time…
