EDITOR’S NOTE

4 Asia-Pacific Boating March/April 2015

Dear Reader

In a world walking towards equality and equity, we still have miles to go. A

woman rising to the top of the game should be a commonplace occurrence,

drawing nothing more if at all, than a raised eyebrow. Sailors like Taramati

Matiwade are silent but persistent torch bearers of such journeys. Sailing her

way through into a sport dominated by men, today she runs a sailing academy

which teaches underprivileged girls the art of setting sails towards a new

horizon. In a league of her own is Taramati’s story in her own words.

Yacht insurance has always been a grey zone, an albatross around an

owner’s neck, best left to those profi cient with numbers and regulations. Into

safe hands by industry expert Aashim Mongia is an endeavour to navigate

through the labyrinth and unveil to our patrons the importance of insuring a

yacht and how to do it smartly so.

Come March and we are warming up to the charms of the Mangusta 165E,

transforming modern voyages. A seamless symphony of repose, readiness and

refuge, it embodies the best of bespoke sailing. Also, revealed is one of the most

customised Gamma 20 built for Italian Opera maestro Andrea Bocelli, with an

impressive guest space and excellent fuel effi ciency plus a custom-built diving

board- almost as tall as his operatic tenor. Transformative and timeless fashion

dominates our style section, the accessories have been carefully hand-picked

for their admirable artisanal craft smanship. Th e spirit of Indian sartorial

perfection has been captured in this exclusive ensemble.

With this issue, celebrate the journey as much as the destination.

Remember calm seas never make skilled sailors, follow the compass of your

heart and let the sea set you free.

Happy Yachting!
