Two quotes from the great C. A. Marchaj have just popped into my brain. "To be seaworthy, a vessel must be able to defend herself against the incursion and peril of the sea." and "A competitive approach to sailing: above all, speed. Relatively small, overcanvassed and overpowered boats, suffering notorious lack of stability, dominate the contemporary racing scene."

There is nothing sadder than coming down to the marina and finding your boat pretending to be a submarine.

What happens when you lose a keel? Ian Oatley's Q, the radically designed Reichel/Pugh 42 day racer, demonstrates. Article and pictures at Sail World.

From the Extreme Sailing Series in Qingdao, China. I hope they had their shots. Fushan Bay is not what I would call clean.
