We have a reasonably broad tapestry of
items to entertain you this month. We look
at Outremer with a boatyard spotlight and

Vestas SailRocket’s frustrating latest record
attempt. This is a superb team effort led
by Paul and his partner Helena Darvelid.
The two of them have worked tirelessly for
years to pull this project together on next to
