The Art of Changing Course Gracefully

PRINT EDITION

ONBOARD ESSENTIALS

Pure originality. A gift collection for the individual who has it all and values distinction above all else.

ONBOARD · CONNECTIVITY

The Connected Boat

A modern helm glows like a cockpit, and a satellite dish on the hardtop now does what a marina phone once did. The boat has quietly become the most connected room its owner has.

ONBOARD · WATER TOYS

The Modern Toy Garage

Somewhere below the main deck, behind a door that folds down into the sea, the modern yacht keeps its best secret. The toys have become the reason to drop anchor at all.

ONBOARD TECHNOLOGY

The Docking, Resolved

Why docking, the three-minute sequence that decides the temper of every passage, has become the most contested frontier in marine electronics.

SOUTHERN WIND · SW105

Conquering the Wind

The fifth hull in the SW105 series, christened Sorvind, is where Farr Yacht Design's naval architecture, Nauta Design's hand, and Southern Wind's carbon craft converge into a 32-meter sloop that meets the ocean with both speed and restraint.

COLLECTOR´S EYE

Four Objects That Earn Their Place

On luxury yachts and along the waterfront, the most considered pieces are rarely the loudest. They are the ones that still serve.

WATERSPORTS · KITESURFING

Flying Over Water

A sport built from wind, a composite kite, a control bar and a small board — and, on a good day, the strangest sensation in watersports: the feeling that the ocean has briefly released its hold. From a French patent in 1984 to its Olympic debut in Paris.

MERCEDES AMG - CIGARETTE RACING

Two Houses, One Throttle

Since 2007, a German performance house and a Florida powerboat builder have shipped a new car-and-boat pairing almost every year. The thirteenth, the Cigarette 41' Nighthawk AMG Black Series, is where the idea reaches full voltage.

ONBOARD SYSTEMS

Navigating Connectivity

The boat has become an office, a living room, and a navigation desk all at once. Staying connected offshore is no longer a luxury; it is the layer the entire vessel runs on. A field guide to how the signal actually arrives.

Safety

Nighttime Navigation

An ocean that fades into a single tone, lights that mean things, distances that no longer behave. A working guide to the hours when the water teaches everyone to look twice.

SAFETY

How to Read a Nautical Chart

Depths in fine print, contour lines that hide a sandbank, buoys whose colors are not what they look. A working guide to the document every American boater is expected to understand.

PERSHING YACHTS · 140

Power Drawn in Aluminium

At 43.3 metres and 38 knots, the Pershing 140 is the Italian yard's first superyacht rendered entirely in light alloy — a flagship built around the proposition that scale and adrenaline need not be a trade.

CRUISING PHILOSOPHY· TECH REPORT

The Art of Changing Course Gracefully

Weather shifts, anchorages fill, engines disagree with the calendar. The cruiser who reads the itinerary as a draft rather than a contract is not improvising — they are practising the oldest and least discussed discipline at sea.
