Wanderlust women
It used to be the case that men set the sails, and women provided a safe harbour. There was perhaps a certain harmony and balance to this age-old idea, but in recent years, in sailing as in life, women are downstairs at the nav station and up on deck, at the helm.

Two’s a Crowd
It’s not every sport, in which a father and son can compete against one another for trophies and prizes. Yet in the Henry family, where saltwater runs in the veins, there’s every chance you will catch these gents out on the ocean, racing each other. A family, with a near spiritual connection to nature, the ocean was built for people like the Henrys. They love all the weird and wild things it chucks at them.
