The annual Cowes Week is in full swing, and on Day 5 and it seems everyone and their dog, are enjoying the atmosphere and light wind racing.

Alinghi wins again in the GC 32 Foiling Class. It looks like they’re trialling for a shot at the Americas’ Cup.

It’s the Final Day for the ILCA, 2021 World Championship, Radial Youth, Circolo Vela Arco on Lake Garda.

There are two great cities who host the end of two great races. In Australia it’s Hobart and in the USA it’s Honolulu. Both embrace the yachts and their crews and their hospitality is both legendary.
Last week it was Honolulu and by the pictures everybody had a good time.

In our July 23 World on Water we had the Lorient Foilers, screaming along behind the huge Edmund de Rothschild Trimaran, at 38 to 40 knots plus.
Well here is how they did it.
