CORE VALUES

PICTURE THIS • A picture of tranquility: the spectacular and lush San Juan Islands archipelago in the US state of Washington is among the cruising highlights of the Pacific Northwest.

PICTURE THIS • Coming at you, Emirates Team New Zealand: Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli at full bore in the Prada Cup Challenger series. The Italian team won the final 7-1, thanks in part to a boat which was fast in all conditions and – as this angle shows – exceptionally aerodynamic.
