Stories behind the images
Sailing Energy’s Dynamic Duo
It was in Enoshima, Japan that Jesús and Pedro captured the images that leap off the February 2021 pages of the Ultimate Sailing Calendar. Their imagery of Nacra 17 racers, the intensity and exhilaration, exemplifies what I look for when curating and producing the Ultimate Sailing Calendar.

A Dream Come True - Marina Semenova
Reflections - Carlo Borlenghi
Our November 2020 Ultimate Sailing Calendar shot is the perfect image to bring in the holiday season. The sailors are bundled against the chill in a frothy sea, but warmed by the golden glow of the sun, which reflects against Nyala’s hull.
Waiting for the Light
Déjà vu!

Focusing on the bright side
Hats off to our esteemed leader: Sharon Green!
Oh, and about that March photo in the 2020 Ultimate Sailing Calendar:
this dramatic shot was captured at the J70 World Championship regatta at Eastern Yacht Club in Marblehead, MA. Sharon said the huge fleet made for thrilling starts and mark roundings – particularly on the first two days when conditions were wild.
Splashy, Bashy Cascais!
February’s image comes to you from Cascais, Portugal! That’s ‘Kesh-Kayssh!’ – a city as exotic and unique as its name.
I was in this beautiful and historic coastal town for the thrilling Rolex TP52 Worlds.
Every day of the TP52 Worlds was ‘fresh to frightening’ (my favorite!)
2020: Clarity of Vision
What a way to start a new decade! January 2020 opens up with a splash, as the V70 Wizard dashes and crashes across the Gulfstream in this bracing image!
This is one of my ‘new’ favorite and most thrilling images; with an equally thrilling ‘How-did-you-ever-capture-that?’ tale.
Prepared for the Parade
‘How did you get the boats to line up like that?’
I get quite the giggle out of that! But in truth, it is no laughing matter: it takes a lot of planning, logistics, the right photo boat and driver, a lively fleet of boats, and a solid knowledge of yacht racing to get an incredible shot like this!
