The Windjammer Parade is a highlight of Kiel Week, taking place every year on its last Saturday. It's a spectacular gathering of nearly all the sailing ships from around Kiel. This year is particularly special as the sailing training ship, Gerh Fock, will lead the parade for the first time in many years.

You have seen the Windjammers now on San Francisco Bay we have the Master Mariners Benevolent Association Regatta. Every year the Master Mariners Benevolent Association. organizes a regatta where classic sailboats, designed or built before 1937, come out to race on San Francisco Bay. This year more than 60 boats came out to sail, and yes, race!
Take a look and see just how exciting racing a classic boat can be.

This is your weekly Global Sailing Highlights show, the World on Water, July 12, 2024.

British Imoca 60 sailor, Pip Hare of Medallia,has her boats broken down into pieces for checking before her "Leggo" project of putting all the pieces back together starts before the race commencement in November.
It's a huge job but one needed as she will be sailing alone, unassisted, around the world. Good luck Pip, we'll be following you on the "World on Water."

iQFoil is a windsurfing class selected by World Sailing to replace the R S X for the 2024 Summer Olympics. The discipline has similarities to Formula Windsurfing, however a notable difference is that sailors only use one sail. The sail size is 9 metre 2 for the men and 8 metre 2 for the women.

These are the Official Highlights from Day 5 at the iQFoil, Youth&Junior European Championships 2024, Light wind slalom raceing for all gold fleets! Tricky conditions ensured lots of pumping, extreme manouvers and well-planned tactical decisions.
New Zealand’s hopes of silverware at the iQFOIL European championships rest on Josh Armit.

It was almost a very different outcome, however, with the 21-year-old Kiwi’s victory following a disqualification from the only other race of the day for a premature start.

The summer project will be the last project before the Vendée Globe for the Imoca, Hublot, A very strong symbolic step for Alan Roura and his team!
Alan Roura and Hublot, is heading for the Vendée Globe 2024, the Everest of the seas.
Like our Pip Hare Story earlier in this show Alan's boat is broken down and checked. Especially the foils which go back to the makers, Persico Marine in Italy. It's a huge job. But remember he is racing alone around the world with no help.
