Internet video of this collision on the Solent in 2011 has been viewed more than a million times. Miraculously, there were no serious injuries on the 33’ Atlanta of Chester after her collision with the 869’ tanker Hanne Knutsen. The yacht’s skipper, a lieutenant in the Royal Navy reserves, was found guilty of not keeping a proper lookout and “impeding the passage of a vessel”.

Cool German iceboat video. DN stands for Detroit News who published the plans for this inexpensive & easy to construct one design iceboat in 1936.

Archie Arrol was a master craftsman working in the Detroit News hobby shop, and together with iceboaters Joe Lodge and Norman Jarrait designed a racing boat they called the "Blue Streak 60", later to become known as the "DN 60". In 1937 a group of 50 laymen worked with Archie in the hobby shop to produce the first fleet of the new iceboats. These first boats broke during the initial season, and after Jarrait and Lodge modified the design to increase the strength, the group got back together to build a second set of iceboats in 1938.[1]

This design, featuring a narrow, single-person cockpit, three steel blades in tricycle style arrangement and a steeply raked mast, remains to this day the most popular ice boat design in use.

The DN is 12 feet (3.7 m) long, with a 21 inch (53 cm) wide cockpit and an 8-foot (2.4 m) wide runner plank. The 16 foot (4.9 m) mast supports 60 square feet (5.6 m²) of sail area. The front runner is typically rigged with a steering rod that connects the runner to a tiller that is mounted just aft of the mast base.[2] The boat weighs around 100 lb (45 kg), and is piloted by a single helmeted sailor.

Sailors stranded at sea speak of Coast Guard search, holding on for life during rescue

Way too inexperienced to have attempted this trip. How many offshore sailing rules did they break? Who can list the most?

Two crew members from the sailboat Dove are sharing their story for the first time since making a distress call which led to a days-long Coast Guard search.

Even the pros need practice

🎥 | How not to do it…

Watch Te Aihe have a slow speed capsize on the Auckland Harbour today. When it goes over- it’s best to get back on the horse (or dolphin) 🐬 and back into testing and training.

Sometimes the lakes look pretty good

At least two former teams can say they found their race boats buried in the bushes (Funky Dory & Can’t Anchor Us), but who can say they wrestled their boat away from giant sea lions? We have a feeling the owner will sell this for a song...

Down Under Sail

It was all happening on the water today with inconsistent breezes and close racing, but the cream rose to the top with Tom Slingsby taking all three race wins on the Yellow course and Tom Burton Sailing taking two bullets on the Blue course.

Kyle Langford had some challenges with his boat, but managed to fix it up moments before the start of the final Blue course race before taking out a telling race win.

Check out today's racing highlights with some colourful commentary from our very own Jody Shiels.

Coast Guard: Sailor’s 911 call that sparked 2-day search off MDI was because she was ‘cold and uncomfortable’
