by Andaman News - Channel 11 on 11 Dec 2006
Our interview is with Santi Kanchanabandhu, President of the 20th Phuket King’s Cup Regatta Organsing Committee, who arranged another successful week, both on the water with 13 divisions in a record fleet of 102 yachts, including the special Sail past in honour of HM the King for his 79th Birthday on the 5th of December, and off the water including the Candle lighting ceremony for HM's Birthday at Mom Tri Boat House.

We asked him first how special it was this year.

A Q&A with Matteo Alfieri about Henri-Lloyd's Mav-Lite Shell 2.0 There's an old joke in the Pacific Northwest that you can wear the same kit to go sailing on Saturday and skiing on Sunday—you've just got to change your outer layers. More recently, however, I learned that swapping jackets can also be optional.

A Q&A with Michaella McCloskey about SailGP's F50 licenses and demerit system SailGP offers some of the world's highest-performance on-the-water racing. Factor in more teams and the short racecourses and tight starting lines that the league has long used, and the objective risks are hard to ignore.

A distinct injustice?
When is a RIB not RIB, nor dayboat, nor adventure craft? When it is an ADV from Highfield... You know, you would have to think so… Yes, they are dayboats.
