With this 15th anniversary issue of Harbour Sint Maarten- Saint Martin we hope to evoke this strong nautical essence of the island. At the same time, we will share some of the fabulous yachts cruising our corner of the planet, along with yachting industry leaders, and aïŹcionados. All this within the covers of Harbour Magazine, the Caribbeans only yachting magazine that helps you dream of sailing into the Cribbean sunset!

Ten Boats in the St Barth Bucket Bliss. Destination. Ganesha. Genevieve. Koo. Lady B. Moonbird. Salperton IV. Twizzle. Zefria. Ten of the magnificent yachts in the 2012 St Barth Bucket were designed by Ed Dubois, an Englishman whose love for the sea has translated into a top-notch career as a naval architect. âI have loved boats since I was a kid,â says Dubois, who first attended the Bucket back in 2000 with just one of his boats in the race. As the race grew in stature, so did his presence. âThe Bucket is my boat show. I bring potential clients hereâsome are repeat clients who have become friendsâand the Bucket gives us a stage on which to act our play.â In 2012, a new class was added to the Bucket fleet, Les Mademoiselles des Mers, with 11 entries, including the 10 Dubois yachts, allowing them to race against each other.

Dix des magnifiques voiliers de la St Barth Bucket de 2012 sont conçu par Ed Dubois, un anglais dont lâamour de la mer lâa menĂ© vers une belle carriĂšre dâarchitecte navale. âJâadore les bateaux depuis mon enfance,â dĂ©clare Dubois, qui a assistĂ© Ă sa premiĂšre Bucket en 2000 lorsquâun seul de ses voiliers participait. La renommĂ©e de la course grandissant, Dubois se fait de plus en plus prĂ©sent. âLa Bucket est mon salon nautique. Jây amĂšne des clients potentiels â certains de mes plus fidĂšles clients sont devenus mes amis. La Bucket est devenue pour nous, une scĂšne grandeur nature.â En 2012, une nouvelle classe sâest ajoutĂ©e au Bucket, Les Mademoiselles des Mers, qui mettait en concurrence les 10 yachts de Dubois.
YACHTS ED DUBOIS
A love of boats âI made model boats at the age of five and sailed them on Round Pond in Londonâs Kensington Gardens,â Dubois recalls, noting that his grandfather and mother had ties to the Royal Navy. After learning the ropes at a sailing camp, Dubois got his first 16â wooden sailboat at the age of 16 and kept it at a sailing club in the Thames Estuary. âI decided to become a yacht designer at the age of 17 with all the naĂŻve assumptions of someone that age,â he admits. Luckily for Dubois, there was a three-year college course in naval architecture adapted to yacht design in Southampton, England, the countryâs yachting epicenter. He graduated in 1974, worked for Alan Buchanan naval architects in the Channel Islands, and his career was launched.

LâAmour de la voile âĂ 5 ans, je construisais des modĂšles que je lançais sur Round Pond Ă Londresâ se rappelle Ed Dubois, dont la mĂšre et le grand-pĂšre ont des attaches Ă la Royal Navy. InitiĂ© Ă la voile en colonie de vacances, Dubois acquit son premier voilier en bois de 5 mĂštres Ă lâĂąge de 16 ans ; navire quâil garde dans un club de voile situĂ© Ă lâestuaire de la Tamise. âJâai dĂ©cidĂ© de devenir concepteur de yachts Ă 17 ans, fort des certitudes naĂŻves de cet Ăąge-lĂ ,â avoue-t-il. Heureusement pour lui, un cours dâarchitecture navale adaptĂ© Ă la conception des yachts est oïŹert dans un collĂšge de Southampton, lâĂ©picentre de la voile en Angleterre. DiplĂŽmĂ© en 1974, Dubois rejoint les architectes navals dâAlan Buchanan, dans les Ăźles de la Manche. Sa carriĂšre Ă©tait lancĂ©e.
52
Bigger and bigger Since his early days in the industry, the biggest changes in yacht design have been size and materials, especially as when Dubois began the biggest sailing yachts were the maxis at 70â to 80â. Illustrating the dramatic shift in size, Dubois is currently designing what should be the largest sailboat ever built when it is finished in 2016: at 100 meters (330â) in length with a 125-meter mast (410â) comprising 17 tons of carbon fiber, the construction of this boat will require more than one million man hours. âThe challenge is how to build and control the sails on a boat that size,â he explains, clearly intrigued by the challenge. Hopefully this Dubois yacht will also make it to the Bucket regatta on an island Dubois is very fond of: âSaint Barth is the only island in the West Indies that has any sophisticated style,â he says, looking out at the docks where ten of his âbabiesâ were waiting to race. One of them, the sleek 44.7-meter Lady B would win its class and place second overall in the Bucket, putting a Dubois yacht squarely in the winnerâs circle.n

Toujours plus grands Depuis ses dĂ©buts, Ed Dubois est le tĂ©moin des plus grands changements dans la conception des yachts en termes de dimensions et de matĂ©riaux. Au dĂ©part, les plus grands dâentre eux mesuraient entre 21 et 25 mĂštres (70 Ă 80 pieds). Pour donner une idĂ©e de lâĂ©volution exponentielle des dimensions, il est Ă noter que Dubois Ă©labore actuellement le voilier qui sera le plus grand jamais construit. Lorsquâil sera achevĂ© en 2016, ce dernier mesurera 100 mĂštres de long (330 pieds) et sera dĂŽtĂ© dâun mĂąt de 125 mĂštres (410 pieds). Utilisant 17 tonnes de fibre de carbone, le voilier exigera plus dâun million dâheures de travail pour sa construction. âLe dĂ©fi consiste Ă savoir Ă la fois fabriquer puis contrĂŽler les voiles dâun navire dâune telle dimension,â explique Dubois, manifestement exaltĂ© par la tĂąche. EspĂ©rons que ce nouveau voilier Dubois participera Ă©galement Ă la Bucket dans une Ăźle que lâachitecte naval aïŹectionne tout particuliĂšrement. âSt Barth est la seule Ăźle antillaise « sophistiquĂ©e »â dit-il, en lorgnant le quai oĂč dix de ses âbĂ©bĂ©sâ attendent le dĂ©but de la course. Lâun dâentre eux, Lady B qui sâĂ©tire sur 44,7 mĂštres, gagnera dans sa classe. ArrivĂ© second dans lâensemble, il placera un voilier Dubois au centre du cercle des vainqueurs de la Bucket. n
THIS WINTER, THERE IS A SPECIAL PLACE TO SEE AND NOT BE SEEN. Discretion is assured, an incredible holiday is certain Ăą€“ chartering Lady Britt is the epitome of understated style and exceptional service.

Star of the show Members of the rock band, Duran Duran, who shot the video for "Rio" aboard Eilean 30 years ago on these same shores, took part in the celebration of Eilean's return. Simon Le Bon, a passionate sailor, Nick Rhodes and Roger Taylor were thrilled to accept Panerai's invitation to return to Antigua and sail again on Eilean, winner of the Woodstock Restoration Trophy in Vintage Class A for Best Restored Yacht. Among stars of the sailing world was America's Cup skipper Dennis Connor, sailing with Carlo Falcone aboard Mariella, winner of the Vintage A Class. Other winners include: Saphaedra (Panerai Prize for First Overall Classic Class); Rebecca (Spirit of Tradition Class A); and Dorade (First Place in Vintage Class B and overall winner in the Concours d'Elégance). And once again, the classic races in Antigua underscored Panerai's commitment to the art of traditional sailing.n

Well-being is an age-old concept that has taken root in recent years, with spa treatments at the top of the list for overall relaxation and escape from the stress of our daily routines. In St Martin/St Maarten, there are many spas where you can rejuvenate body and soul, rebalance your energy, and treat yourself to the kind of pampering you more than deserve during your stay on the island. Select a special package at a hotel spa, like the luxurious treatments available at Simpson Bay Resort, or check out LâAqualigne, opened 25 years ago by Marc Van Thielen, a Belgian-born pioneer in the science of good health and wellness. âWhen I want to be healthy, happy, and beautiful,â he says, âwhat better place and time to start than on a beautiful tropical island. One of the rare places left with an unspoiled natural environment. Just being in the Caribbean has a therapeutic influence, as you can unwind and relax in the warm waters of the Caribbean Sea or the Atlantic Ocean.â
Physical exercise, yoga, and a good diet all contribute to your well-being, as well as hydrotherapyâsauna, cold bath, and steam roomâwhich is recommended as part of an ongoing routine for helping to purify the body and its lymphatic system. Massage is also an important element, with soft music helping to relax the mind and bring it to a dream state. As the muscles are kneaded and stroked, blood circulation is stimulated and toxins will be eliminated. By massaging the entire body, energy channels are opened and harmony restored. After a massage, Marc Van Thielen recommends even more relaxation to complete the sensory experience: âAfter a massage,â he instructs,âYou should look for a quiet and peaceful place so that you can continue to enjoy the full impact of the massage.â On the island of St Maarten/ St Martin, itâs not hard to find a place to relax, on the beach or by your pool as you continue on the road to well-being!

Le bien-ĂȘtre est un concept plutĂŽt ancien, qui a tendance Ă revenir Ă la mode. Le spa est dâailleurs lâun des meilleurs traitements de relaxation pour lutter contre le stress et Ă©chapper Ă une routine UN SENTIMENT quotidienne. A St Martin / St Maarten, il existe de nombreux spas qui permettent de rĂ©gĂ©nĂ©rer le corps et lâesprit, de rĂ©Ă©quilibrer vos flux Ă©nergĂ©tiques et surtout de vous faire dorloter comme il se doit durant votre sĂ©jour sur lâĂźle. Tout ce que vous avez Ă faire, câest de choisir une offre spĂ©ciale dans un hĂŽtel agrĂ©mentĂ© dâun spa, comme par exemple le traitement de luxe disponible au Simpson Bay, ou encore de sĂ©lectionner lâun des nombreux spas de lâĂźle, tel que lâAqualigne. Ce spa a Ă©tĂ© crĂ©Ă© il y a 25 ans par Marc Van Thielen, originaire de la Belgique, qui en sait long sur le domaine de la santĂ© et du bien-ĂȘtre. âLorsque je veux absolument ĂȘtre en bonne santĂ©, heureux et Ă©panoui,â dĂ©clare-t-il, âil nâexiste aucun meilleur endroit au monde quâune belle Ăźle tropicale. Câest lâun des rares endroits oĂč lâenvironnement naturel a Ă©tĂ© prĂ©servĂ©. Le simple fait de se trouver dans les CaraĂŻbes a une influence thĂ©rapeutique car on a la possibilitĂ© de se dĂ©tendre et de se relaxer dans les eaux chaudes de la Mer des

The St. Maarten Marine Park surrounds the entire Dutch side from Oyster Pond to Cupecoy Bay, encompassing some of the last pristine marine locations on the island. Twenty-eight various dive sites include natural and man-made reefs as well a few shipwrecks, such as Proselyte reef, a wonderful example of a historical wreck with artifacts. In Saint Martin, the RĂ©serve Naturelle plays an important role in the preservation of the underwater world and important natural sites on the French side of the island, so that no matter where you dive you might even find a mermaid along with the magnificent panorama of underwater flora and fauna.n
