Flying fish!

The latest update from Maiden is in! And we're hoping any Maiden crew members that have sailed with previous Skipper Liz Wardley give Kate the same advice Liz gave the crew a few years ago... "You have never lived until you have been hit in the face by a flying fish!"

"We are past the Canaries! Kate got hit by a fish. This led to a discussion on what karaoke song a flying fish would sing."

If you ever sailed:studied with me you probably heard about the Vendée Globe race. The famous IMOCA boats that were the inspiration to one of my designs.

Do you know how much that is?

Le saviez-vous ? 🤔
A 1 mètre près, le tirant d'air d'un IMOCA (hauteur du bateau hors de l'eau) est égal à la longueur d'un terrain de basket ! 🏀
Sauriez-vous nous donner sa taille ?
