World on Water May16 25 Pyewacket/Kialoa III, Swans Corsica, ILCA China, 52's Saint Tropez more
This is the weekly Global Sailing Highlights show, World on Water, May 16, 2025. Our videos have been published in the last seven days, and the World on water has been on YouTube, weekly, since 2008.
In 2025, Antigua Sailing Week was attended by two top end offshore racing yachts from very different times. Launched in 1974, the 79 foot Kialoa 3 was all conquering on the world stage for many years. Today Pyewacket 70, a modified Volvo 70, is one of the fastest 70 footers around. In this film we compare these two legends from different times. In an ironic twist, Ben Mitchell who currently races onboard Pyewacket, also used to race on Kialoa III , 50 years ago – including during the 1975 Sydney Hobart race where K3 set a record that stood for 21 years.
Day one of the Swan Bonifacio Challenge opened in spectacular style, with bright sunshine, building breeze, and picture-perfect conditions off the Corsican coast. With gusts reaching 25 knots and a lively sea state, crews were tested from the first gun, and delivered a day of fast, competitive sailing. Smiles on the dock and spray on the lens; Bonifacio is off to a flying start.
The Maxi Banque Populaire XI wins the Tour de Belle-Ile 2025.
First challenge of the season brilliantly by Armel Le Cléac’h and his crew, who faced more than 300 boats in this mythical race around Belle-Ile-en-Mer. A great performance that perfectly launches the 2025 season.
The first day of the ILCA World Championship qualifying series brought a dual challenge of tide and wind to the waters off Qingdao. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, today marks the 15th day of the fourth month — a period known for the strongest tidal currents of the month.
Low tide occurred at 10:35, and the current remained flooding throughout the racing window, peaking at high tide at 16:20.
Making what proved to be the decisive winning move on the final run of the second and final race today, Britain’s Tony Langley and his world champion crew, secured overall victory at the first regatta of the five event 2025 52 SUPER SERIES season, the 52 SUPER SERIES Saint Tropez Sailing Week. Light winds and calms meant only four races could be sailed of the 10 planned, Gladiator winning by one single point ahead of Takashi Okura’s Sled.
The first stop of The Nations League 2025 brought the ClubSwan Racing One Design circuit to the stunning port of Bonifacio, Corsica — and it delivered in every way. Over four days, 31 boats across four competitive classes — ClubSwan 50, 42, 36, and the newly launched 28, raced in near-perfect conditions, with consistent breeze, sunshine, and a vibrant regatta village at the heart of the experience.
