This is your weekly Global Sailing Highlights show, the World on Water, August 22 2025.
We commence this weeks' video with Boris Herrmanns' Team Malizias' arrival in Portsmouth at the End of leg one of the ocean race europe. Biotherm was first in and Malizia was second.
After the leg one prize giving, Holcim P R B arrived in Portsmouth in time for the start of leg 2. After the crash the shore crew did a good job of fixing the damage.
After two and a half days of intense offshore racing, Biotherm (FRA), skippered by Paul Meilhat, once again crossed the line first to claim maximum points at the midway scoring gate. Their move at Cape Finisterre, where they were first to hook into a new breeze on the western side of the fleet, proved decisive.
Andy Soriano’s Alegre team kicked off the Puerto Portals 52 SUPER SERIES Sailing Week with a solid win in the first race of the competition, marking a successful return to Puerto Portals for the tenth year.
For the second successive day of racing at Puerto Portals 52 SUPER SERIES Sailing Week, the 2023 circuit champions Platoon Aviation were boat of the day, top scorers among the 13 boat fleet from nine nations.
With a fourth and a first Harm Müller-Spreer's German-flagged team extend their margin at the top of the standings to 11 points as their high level of consistency starts to bite, suggesting they now really do have the measure of their potent new boat which they launched in the spring.
Unusually for Plas Heli, on day 2 of the Ilca U K Nationals the sailing conditions were rather light with the decision made to fly A P over A. A Race Clinic led by Ilca 6 sailor Iris Singleton on boat settings drew a substantial crowd before sailors limbered up for the Pwlheli Chaser 3km run.
here was another foiling saiboat crash over the weekend. Following on to the Ocean Race Europe leg 1 start now in the Germany Sail Grand Prix, last race of the Day we saw a scary moment where USA SailGP team collided with EmiratesGBR at full speed. Fortunately all athletes were all safe and accounted for, and hope both teams return to the water quickly but it is only a matter of time if these crashes continue happening.
