- Baltic Yachts has delivered the 37.08-metre-long all-carbon yacht ‘Alice’, designed for long, partly self-sufficient family voyages with high sailing performance.  
- The telescopic keel varies the draught from 4.15 to 6.40 metres, enhancing stability and performance and enabling operation in both shallow waters and on the high seas.  
- Sail handling with a furling main boom, furling systems and captive winches allows operation with a small crew; a glazed deckhouse connects the light-filled saloon and cockpit.

- The Oyster 825 ‘Viva La Vida’ collided with a reef/rock during Hamilton Island Race Week, took on water and capsized keel-up; ten people were unharmed.  
- Photographs show the loss of the lower ballast section; the upper keel stub is still attached to the hull; the cause of the flooding remains unclear until the vessel is salvaged.  
- A comparison with the sinking of the “Polina Star III” in 2015 reveals a different pattern of damage; so far, there is no documented technical link between the two instances of keel loss.

- The MAIB identifies potential stability issues with the ‘Bayesian’ as a risk in strong winds; Italian investigators are also examining possible errors on the part of the crew.  
- Criminal proceedings and technical investigations in Italy, as well as the MAIB’s analysis, will not have been concluded by 2026; the cause of the sinking remains unknown.  
- Italian Sea Group is undergoing judicial restructuring proceedings and is seeking €456 million in civil damages from the owner and crew; the other party has filed counterclaims.
