Rear Admiral Wanchai Tuamsem, Royal Thai Navy, presented an award to the Foxy Lady 6 team, the first placed racing team in IRC1 division after the initial day’s racing at the 27th Phuket King’s Cup Regatta. The prize-giving ceremony was hosted by the Royal Thai Navy at Katathani Phuket Beach Resort.

Inaugurated in 1987 to celebrate the 60th birthday of His Majesty the King of Thailand, the event has been held every year since, during the first week of December. The series of post-race parties is a key element of the excitement and attraction of the Phuket King’s Cup Regatta. Sailors come from all corners of the globe to take part in close racing, majestic sea conditions and to enjoy the evening social scene – hallmarks of the legendary Phuket King’s Cup Regatta.

Fall over the bow and rely on sheer horsepower to get you away. Decent AC parallel me thinks... May 14, 2026 may well have been when the fighter was 'thrown' off the front of the carrier, as it were. Aviator saluted the Shooter, who then tapped the deck, and a couple of seconds later you disappear over the bow, only to climb back out into free air.

More recently, however, I learned that swapping jackets can also be optional.
