In the exhilarating world of sailing, the winter season has brought with it an exciting series of competitions. A tale of two siblings, Benjamin and Sam Pascoe, stands out as they bravely faced the challenges of the Seldén Sailjuice Winter Series 2025-26. Their journey was a blend of skills, strategy, and kinship, overriding the adversities thrown their way, with the Datchet Flyer being their first real challenge. Despite a few setbacks due to inexperience and stormy weathers, the brothers managed to make a comeback, turning these obstacles into stepping stones for victory.
Pastrovich Studio, a Monegasque design studio famed for its innovative yacht designs and groundbreaking architectural concepts, has once again redefined water-bound adventures with the unveiling of their family-focused explorer yacht concept, X-Bryce. The renowned company, helmed by accomplished architect and seasoned yacht designer Stefano Pastrovich, has crafted a vessel concept that is perfect for family exploration.
The X-Bryce journey is offered in two size variations, a chic 39-to 43-metre version and a larger, more spacious 47-metre rendition. The design inspiration incorporates the studio’s rich history and the experience bequeathed from the refurbishment of family-friendly vessels like Zulu and Lady Jade. The genius in X-Bryce lies in the generous internal and external volumes, developed in harmony with the rhythms and dynamics of family interaction onboard. Current modern explorer owners, unencumbered by passing trends and focused on ‘authentic water living’, influenced the design.
