This is your weekly Global Sailing Highlights show, the World on Water, August 30, 2024.

With a nicely put together victory in the first race and an equally accomplished second position on the first day of the Puerto Portals 52 SUPER SERIES Sailing Week, Harm Muller Spreer's 2023 overall champions on Platoon Aviation, today looked much more like the team which has won three TP52 World titles.
The German flagged team, led by Italian tactician Vasco Vascotto, have been struggling to get the best so far from their new TP52 this season and suffered a setback in Newport when they lost their rudder at the first of the two events there. But today, back in the modest 8-10 knots sea breezes of the familiar Bay of Palma, they looked for all the world like the title winning Platoon of old, as they pieced two really solid results together to lead Tony Langley's recently crowned, Rolex TP52 World Champions, Gladiator, by a single point.

After no wind on the final day in Pingtan Island, the final standings were determined based on earlier results from the week. Both Ghio, and Suardiaz, put down a winning marker in the opening Marathon Race, last Wednesday, and both performed to a very high level in the short course racing of the opening series.
With no racing able to take place on the final day, the medallists celebrated their success with a hair-rising ride on a giant inflatable Pikachu. Is there any better way to celebrate sporting success than on an oversized Pokémon character?

The Solitaire du Figaro, initially called the Course de l'Aurore, organized by the newspaper of the same name, was born in 1970. In 1980, the daily newspaper Le Figaro bought the event that now bears its name.
After 15 years of good and loyal service, the Figaro, BENETEAU 2 yacht, has given way to the foiling, Figaro, BENETEAU 3. This new generation sailboat made its first appearence in spring 2019.
The first race this year started in Rouen, took Wolf Rock, off the western end of England, to port, and finishes in Sea-hort, back in France. It is 615 nautical miles, and the boats are sailed by one person.
