1001 Boats is a website that is documenting 1001 boats in order to raise money for charity. They are posting photos and information on a huge range of boats. As they state they want to post  “1001 Boats which inspire, boats which fascinate, boats which captured the imagination of a small boy, boats which carry grown men to adventure, boats which are too important to be forgotten, boats which are beautiful, boats which are significant.”

Check out the website if you want to learn something new or you can submit ideas for boats that you would like them to feature.

The Volvo Ocean Race and the America’s Cup World Series has been taking place the last month or two. If you need something to pass your time in the off season there’s a lot of great footage worth checking out. Below is Part 1 of a documentary on this year’s Volvo Ocean Race.

We have now posted the photos from this year’s Utah Summer Games. We have also uploaded a lot of older photos from years past as well, some going back to 2002, so those are worth checking out while your browsing our photo gallery.

The regatta results should be posted soon on the Utah Summer Games Sailing page.

In addition to the great photos we have a couple of videos available as well.

Thanks to everyone who made it out to the Utah Summer Games Catamaran Regatta last week-end. We had a great time filled with sailing, BBQing, racing, and salvaging sunken boats. We will be posting photos and videos of the event once I gather them up from everybody.
