Apr 29th – It was a hot humid sunny day with light winds in the morning increasing throughout the day … this is becoming a trend! We left Vero Beach and headed 54 miles north along the ICW to Cocoa Beach and dropped the hook. We saw a couple large sunken cruisers along the way … we were wondering if they were hit by hurricane Matthew. After a long travel day we just relaxed on the boat and had a BBQ dinner. We have another long travel day ahead of us tomorrow.

Ka-band is being hailed by some as the next big thing for satellite technology, with smaller terminals and a major speed boost for superyachts most demanding owners – but how does it really compare against both legacy and emerging Ku-based solutions?
We ask two of the market leaders as they face off over 10cm difference, does size really matter?
Antenna size you can’t change physics, Antenna size has important implications for performance, The higher frequency Ka-band allows the use of antennas that are a quarter the size of their Ku counterparts in order to achieve the same gain.
Environmental Interference, “Rain fade”
“Rain fade,” or interference caused by certain atmospheric conditions, is a frequently discussed topic in the Ka- vs. Ku-band arena, and is one of the biggest challenges affecting communications reliability. Rain fade is generally caused by wet snow and other moist precipitation (interestingly, dry snow has a minimal impact). The most significant attenuation due to rain is typically seen during relatively short periods of very intense rainfall

Competitors set out to find blue skies and a varied breeze of five to 10 knots with Race Officer Lucy Sutro sending racers on a three-loop harbour course between the Central Club buoy off of the Wan Chai Ferry terminal then to Shau Kei Wan(SKW) and back.
Boats were split into five starts based on their RHKATI ratings, with the HKPN rated entries starting first. The last boats to set off were the larger of the big boats including England’s TP52 FreeFire, Orient Express representing Hong Kong, Straight Up yer Kilt representing Scotland accompanied by the sole catamaran to take part in the event Flyer a Flying Phantom representing England.
Most starts were clear with only a few OCSs being called. Once the horn sounded, national teams beat their way up the harbour with some teams sporting costumes of all types to mark the occasion including kilts, rooster hats, martial arts costumes, and Union Jack blazers.

Once sailors reached SKW they hoisted their kites and ran down to Central buoy where they encountered a disappointing strong outgoing tide and a considerable hole around the mark. Once they managed to limp their way around, they headed back to SKW. Due to the considerable hole it was decided to shorten the course by one lap.

Tornado representing Hong Kong was the first to finish on the water with team New Zealand Flying Fifteen Forty Forte taking the silverware and the bragging rights of having their flag displayed over the Main Bar for a year for the fourth year running.
