    The modern racing yacht is awash with onboard instruments and electronics giving enormous amounts of data. But few people fully understand how to get the most out of all the information at their fingertips, let alone make it useful for the team to enable them to win races. But ace navigators, Mark Chisnell and Gilberto Pastorella, do – both have worked with professional sailing programmes all over the world – from America's Cup to Maxi, ORC / IRC and one-design fleets. In Mastering Data to Win they take the reader through the process: from understanding the concepts, ensuring accuracy, using the data to win races and then post-race analysis to find performance gains. By mastering your instruments you can make the right calls every time and know for certain when to tack, which shift to look out for and how the tide can work with or against you. With colour diagrams and photographs throughout, this instructional guide turns information into excellence.  Accessible to those new to racing, it also has a depth of information that will transform the performance of even professional sailors.

    Embarking on a fitness journey as a couple is more than just a way to stay active—it’s a path toward strengthening your relationship while improving your health. Sharing this experience allows you to build a deeper bond, develop trust, and create a partnership rooted in mutual support and growth. Whether you are just starting or looking to enhance your current routine, fitness as a couple can redefine how you connect with one another. 
    The benefits of working out together go beyond physical health. It fosters emotional closeness as you encourage and motivate each other. By setting shared goals, you create a sense of accountability that helps you stay consistent. Overcoming challenges as a team, such as completing a difficult workout or adhering to a nutrition plan, reinforces your ability to face obstacles in other aspects of life together. 
    A successful fitness journey begins with understanding your goals as individuals and as a couple. Open communication is key—discuss what each of you hopes to achieve and identify how your goals can align. One partner might aim to build strength, while the other may prioritize weight loss or improved endurance. Finding common ground ensures that your journey is collaborative rather than competitive.

    This lecture introduces Judo, a discipline that evolved from Jujutsu—an ancient Japanese martial art involving unarmed combat techniques like throws, strikes, and joint locks, as well as defense against weapons. While Jujutsu dates back to mythological times, formal instruction began around 350 years ago. I studied it under three masters and, in 1882, founded the Kodokan to teach a refined version called Judo. "Ju" means gentleness, and "Do" means way—together, Judo signifies the way of gentleness. Beyond combat, Judo promotes physical, intellectual, and moral development, offering a comprehensive philosophy for improving all aspects of life.
