So proud of the team @ineosbritannia to win the @LouisVuitton Cup. Respect to @lunarossa you were amazing competitors #teamwork #americascup
Ten years ago today, #Glasgow had its own #sailing #flotilla up the river Clyde as part of the 2014 #CommonwealthGames. In a few moments a flotilla will go along the Seine to get #Paris2024 underway!

Love this video of Adrian Newey and @Oyster_Yachts, and more generally the increasing crossover between #sailing and #F1 ⛵️🏎️

Fun fact: if you were to tow #CalMac’s under-construction #GenSannox ferry to #Monaco today it would be the most expensive vessel in the marina, costing more than superyachts Lionheart and Hampshire III owned by billionaires Philip Green and Jim Ratcliffe!

To you, she was your Queen.
To us, she was The Queen.
She will be with all of us forever.

Launched 89 years ago, one of the Clyde's most famous pleasure steamers could soon be sailing once again - more than 40 years since she last carried passengers "doon the watter". More on the @fotsqm plans for TS Queen Mary here: helensburghadvertiser.co.uk/…

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day.
In 1938, Sir Nicholas Winton brought Jewish children from German-occupied Czechoslovakia to safety in the UK.
Fifty years later, That’s Life reunited him with some of those children.

Here are the lighthouses of Europe.
The map is even better than it might seem at first glance: the colors are the real colors, the patterns are the real patterns, and the size of the dots is the distance at which each light is visible. geodienst.github.io/lighthou…
