A new cruise ship from Royal Caribbean coming in 2018 will be the biggest ever built.

Royal Caribbean today will revealthat the fourth vessel in its record-breaking Oasis class series, scheduled to debut in April 2018, will measure about 230,000 tons, eclipsing the current size leader by about 3,000 tons.

Royal Caribbean also will announcethe name for the ship, which already is under construction at a shipyard in France: Symphony of the Seas.

In addition, the line will announce that the vessel willsail to the Caribbean out of Miami starting in November 2018. It'll move to the city after spending its first few months operating voyages in the Mediterranean.

The announcements are coming as Royal Caribbean preparesto break ground todayon a new terminal at the port of Miami that will be able to accommodate ships as big as Symphony.

In addition to Symphony, the new terminal will be home to a second Oasis Class ship, Allure of the Seas, which will move to Miami from its current home in Fort Lauderdale in late 2018, Royal Caribbean will announce today.

In becoming the world's largest cruise ship, Symphony will be dethroning the third vessel in the Oasis Class series, Harmony of the Seas. Unveiled just eight months ago, Harmony measures 226,963 tons and can carry up to 6,780 passengers.

Five things to love about Royal Caribbean's new Harmony of the Seas

Symphony will share many of the same features as Harmony, whichis about 1,700 tons larger than the first two Oasis Class vessels, Oasis of the Seas and Allure,and offers attractions that aren't on the earlier ships. Among features that were new on Harmony that will be debuting on Symphony, too:Ultimate Abyss, which has been heralded as the most thrilling attraction ever conceived for a cruise vessel. Comprised of two swirling slides, Ultimate Abyss drops ninestories from near the top of the ship down to one of its lowest decks (scroll through the carousel at the top of this story for a look at everything Harmony has to offer).

Symphony also will have a multi-deck water slide area, something Royal Caribbean just begun adding to vessels in 2016, and a Bionic Bar where the drinks are served by robot bartenders a concept that first debuted in 2014 on Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas.

Royal Caribbean will announce today that Symphony willhave 28 more cabins than Harmony as well as some new features not currently on the earlier vessel.

With the addition of Symphony, Royal Caribbean will have 26 ships.

Symphony's first voyages will openfor bookings later today.

Even bigger! New Royal Caribbean cruise ship to be world's largest - USA TODAY

Value investing is easily one of the most popular ways to find great stocks in any market environment. After all, who wouldnt want to find stocks that are either flying under the radar and are compelling buys, or offer up tantalizing discounts when compared to fair value?

One way to find these companies is by looking at several key metrics and financial ratios, many of which are crucial in the value stock selection process. Lets put Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. (RCL - Free Report) stock into this equation and find out if it is a good choice for value-oriented investors right now, or if investors subscribing to this methodology should look elsewhere for top picks.

PE Ratio

A key metric that value investors always look at is the Price to Earnings Ratio, or PE for short. This shows us how much investors are willing to pay for each dollar of earnings in a given stock, and is easily one of the most popular financial ratios in the world. The best use of the PE ratio is to compare the stocks current PE ratio with: a) where this ratio has been in the past; b) how it compares to the average for the industry/sector; and c) how it compares to the market as a whole.

On this front, Royal Caribbean has a trailing twelve months PE ratio of 15.57, as you can see in the chart below:

This level actually compares pretty favorably with the market at large, as the PE for the S&P 500 stands at about 20.49. If we focus on the stocks long-term PE trend, the current level puts Royal Caribbeans PE ratio below its midpoint over the past five years, which is 16.92. Moreover, the current level is fairly below the highs for this stock, suggesting that the stock is undervalued compared to its historical levels.

Further, the stocks PE also compares favorably with the Zacks classified Leisure & Recreation Services industrys trailing twelve months PE ratio, which stands at 20.15. At the very least, this indicates that the stock is relatively undervalued right now, compared to its peers.

We should also point out that Royal Caribbean has a forward PE ratio (price relative to this years earnings) of 13.60, so it is fair to say that a slightly more value-oriented path may be ahead for Royal Caribbean stock in the near term too.

P/S Ratio

Another key metric to note is the Price/Sales ratio. This approach compares a given stocks price to its total sales, where a lower reading is generally considered better. Some people like this metric more than other value-focused ones because it looks at sales, something that is far harder to manipulate with accounting tricks than earnings.

Right now, Royal Caribbean has a P/S ratio of about 2.41. This is lower than the S&P 500 average, which comes in at 3.11 right now. Also, as we can see in the chart below, this is somewhat below the highs for this stock, in particular over the past year.

Broad Value Outlook

In aggregate, Royal Caribbean currently has a Zacks Value Style Score of A, putting it into the top 20% of all stocks we cover from this look. This makes Royal Caribbean a solid choice for value investors, and some of its other key metrics make this pretty clear too.

For example, the PEG ratio for Royal Caribbean is just 0.63, a level that is lower than the industrys average of 2.99. The PEG ratio is a modified PE ratio that takes into account the stocks earnings growth rate. Additionally, its P/CF ratio (another great indicator of value) comes in at 8.63, which is somewhat better than the industry average of 8.70. Clearly, RCL is a solid choice on the value front from multiple angles.

What About the Stock Overall?

Though Royal Caribbean might be a good choice for value investors, there are plenty of other factors to consider before investing in this name. In particular, it is worth noting that the company has a Growth grade of C and a Momentum score of C. This gives RCL a Zacks VGM scoreor its overarching fundamental gradeof B. (You can read more about the Zacks Style Scores here >>)

Meanwhile, the companys recent earnings estimates have been encouraging. The current quarter has seen two upward estimate revisions in the past sixty days, while the full year estimate has seen eight upward revisions in the same time frame.

As a result, the current quarter consensus estimate has increased by 31.4%, while the full year estimate has inched up by 3.5%. You can see the consensus estimate trend and recent price action for the stock in the chart below:

Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. Price and Consensus

Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. Price and Consensus | Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. Quote

This positive trend signifies bullish analyst sentiment, and its Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) indicates robust fundamentals and expectations of outperformance in the near term.

Bottom Line

Royal Caribbean is an inspired choice for value investors, as it is hard to beat its incredible lineup of statistics on this front. Its Zacks Rank #2 also indicates robust growth potential in the near future. However, the companys prospects might be constrained due to adverse broader factors, as it has a sluggish industry rank (Bottom 34% out of more than 250 industries). In fact, over the past one year, the Zacks categorized Leisure & Recreation Services industry has clearly underperformed the broader market, as you can see below:

So, it might pay for value investors to delve deeper into the companys prospects, as fundamentals indicate that this stock could be a compelling pick.

Royal Caribbean to put Symphony of the Seas sailings on sale beginning Wednesday - Royal Caribbean Blog (blog)

British holidaymakers have been warned not to travel on one of the Caribbeans biggest airlines.

The Foreign Office (FCO) has issued guidance not to fly on InselAir, the national carrier of Dutch Caribbean island Curacao, due to safety concerns.

Safety concerns have been raised about Insel Air, the FCO said. The US and Netherlands authorities have prohibited their staff from using the airline while safety checks are being carried out. UK government officials have been told to the same as a precaution.

Boasting a fleet of 18 aircraft, and serving 26 destinations across the Caribbean and South America, as well as Miami in the US, Insel Air carried 1.4 million passengers in 2016. Its SkyTrax rating is just 3/10, however,with its page on the airline rating website garnering some less-than-positive reviews.

InselAir said it was aware that the Dutch Civil Aviation Inspectorate had recently visited Curacao as well as its sister airline Insel Air Aruba and performed spontaneous audits. It said the inspectors left pleasantly surprised.

In a statement the airline said: Contrary to the information being circulated by the media, both local and abroad, both airlines remain until now unaware of any findings from the Dutch Civil Aviation Inspectorate that would have an effect on the airworthiness of their operations.

Currently neither of the airlines have major pending technical and operational findings with their respective Aviation Authority.

The FCO does not normally pass judgement on airlines as standards are governed by national aviation authorities. It points travellers towards the International Air Transport Association for records on airline safety.

There are currently more than 100 airlines banned from EU airspace, or facing operational restrictions, as they dont come up to scratch. Insel Air is not banned from the EU. The list does include every airlines from Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan, Liberia, Mozambique, Sierra Leone and Sudan, as well as dozens from Indonesia.

Earlier this year, it was announced by AirlineRatings.com that Qantas is the worlds safest airline. Other carriers to make the top 20 include British Airways, Swiss, Air New Zealand and Virgin Atlantic.

Foreign Office warns travellers not to fly on major Caribbean airline - Telegraph.co.uk

TAIPEI, Taiwan (CMC) President Tsai Ing-wen is to visit the Caribbean later this year amid concerns that its relations with some Caribbean allies have become unstable, Foreign Minister David Lee said Monday.

Taiwan has relations with St Kitts-Nevis, St Vincent and the Grenadines, St Lucia, Belize, Haiti and the Dominican Republic and Lee acknowledged that relations with one or more of the Caribbean are kind of unstable.

That is why a visit by President Tsai Ing-wen to allies in that region in the second half of this year is being planned as part of the governments efforts to cement ties with diplomatic partners there, Lee said when answering questions from Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Lo Chih-cheng at the Legislative Yuans Foreign and National Defence Committee.

Lee said that his ministry has taken measures to improve bilateral ties with these countries in question and that the situation is under control.

The Foreign Ministry has been keeping close tabs on ties with Taiwans diplomatic allies and will address issues immediately if it notices something wrong, he said, without elaborating on which country or countries in the Caribbean are in question.

Last August, the main opposition New Democratic Party (NDP) in St Vincent and the Grenadines said it would switch diplomatic recognition from Taiwan to China if it is elected to office in the next general election.

The announcement represented a change in one of the last common policies that the NDP shared with the ruling Unity Labour Party (ULP).

St Vincent and the Grenadines has maintained unbroken diplomatic ties with Taiwan since 1981, even as several other Caribbean nations, including Dominica and Grenada, have switched ties over the last decade.

Beijing says Taiwan is a renegade province to be reunited with the mainland, by force, if necessary.

The NDP said that as a modern political organisation, it continues to discuss and formulate a range of appropriate measures and responses to ongoing geo-political realities.

In this regard, fully cognisant of the ever-evolving symmetry of international affairs, and the principal responsibility and obligation of our party in or out of Government to diligently pursue and protect the best strategic interests of our country, I hereby formally announce that the New Democratic Party of St Vincent and the Grenadines, as of todays date, August 23, 2016, has taken the decision to recognise the United Nations accepted norm of a One China Policy, the NDP leader Arnhim Eustace said in a statement last August.

Last year, St Vincent and the Grenadines Minister of Foreign Affairs, Sir Louis Straker, said Kingstown was hoping to establish diplomatic presence in Taiwan.

St Vincent and the Grenadines has benefitted significantly from its relationship with Taiwan both in terms of infrastructural and human resource development.

Taiwan financed the terminal building at the Argyle International Airport, 15 learning resource centres across the country, bridges and other pieces of infrastructure projects.

Taiwan President to visit Caribbean amid concerns of 'unstable' relations with region - Jamaica Observer

Intrigue turned to astonishment for John Buckingham when an exotic letter which dropped on his doormat turned out to contain a rare 200-year-old Padstow Bank note stolen from a museum more than 30 years ago.

The simple white envelope, dotted with colourful Caribbean stamps, had no return address and was addressed in handwriting to the care of the Padstow Museum.

As chairman, Mr Buckingham had carefully opened the correspondence, wondering who was reaching out to their little collection of antiquities from across the ocean.

"I was very surprised," he said. "When I saw the envelope and the postmark I first thought, 'who is writing to me from St Lucia?' I just opened it and there was no covering letter or anything. There was a plastic sleeve, like the type a collector might use, and inside was this 1 note."

It doesn't look much, but this note would have been a few months' wages for most people in 1819.

However the mystery was about to deepen when Mr Buckingham inspected the note further.

"The note was issued by the Padstow Bank of Thomas Rawlings in 1819 and I knew we had a note like that in the collection. So I got out my book and my magnifying glass and checked the note I had been sent with the one in he book about the museum which was published in the 1970s. It was the same note."

Watch: John Buckingham tell how Padstow Museum was reunited with a rare 1 note.

Mr Buckingham was aware the note had been reported as stolen from the museum in June 1984.

"I have no idea who sent us the note back," he said. "There was return address. I did wonder if the person who stole it sent it back and because there was no covering letter you can't help but think it, but that would be just speculation.

The envelope containing the rare 1 note.

"I'm just very pleased that the note is back at the museum. I don't think it is worth very much, but it's important that it is back at the museum at last."

The note is a fascinating relic of Regency era Padstow and at the time would have been a sizeable sum of money when housemaids earned around 7 a year and unskilled labourers and fishermen in the harbour earned far less.

But the note also charts the rise and fall of what was then one of the most powerful families in north Cornwall.

Thomas Rawlings had moved to Padstow from St Columb with his father the previous century and became a wealthy merchant, setting up his own bank and selling everything from hemp, to iron and timber.

John Buckingham with the Padstow Bank 1 note, now back at the Padstow Museum

As he moved up the social ladder, so his family demanded homes to reflect their standing in the community. One Rawlings home is now St Petroc's Hotel and Bistro, which is part of Rick Stein's empire in Padstow.

By the time the bank note was printed in 1819, Rawlings had built a magnificent mansion, Saunders Hill, which was said to be second only in scale and importance to Prideaux Place, the Elizabethan manor house which still stands today.

A year later, Rawlings died and without his leadership the carefully nurtured business began to unravel and soon collapsed.

The opulent residence built by Thomas Rawlings. A car park now stands on the site.

Stylish Saunders Hill was said to have been bought by the owners of Prideaux Place, who demolished it and the site is now occupied by The Lawns car park.

However a potential glimpse into the past has recently appeared at tennis courts nearby where a hole in the ground is thought to have been caused by a ground subsiding into what where the old cellars of Saunders Hill.

The note will be available to view when Padstow Museum reopens at Easter.

Look out for the bouquet!

Meghan Markle partied with some of Prince Harrys closest pals at the wedding of one of his best friends in Montego Bay, Jamaica on Thursday.

The couple is in the Caribbean to witness the wedding of Tom Skippy Inskip and literary agent Lara Hughes-Young. Inskip and Harry are childhood friends they met at Eton College and Inskip is popularly said to have been Harrys wingman on rowdyevenings out during their younger days.

For the nuptials, Markle wore a long floral dress and sunglasses as the royal, who was one of 14 ushers, suited up in a navy blue blazer and trousers.

For Markle, it is thought to be the first time she has accompanied Harry to a wedding and it marks something of a public coming out for the couple.

But she will fit in well as she has already met most of Harrys closest friends in London during restaurant and theater dates over several months of dating.

During the wedding, an onlooker tells PEOPLE that the two shared plenty of PDA, including a sweet kiss.

Harry and Meghan seem very much in love, the source said, adding that Harry spent much of his time introducing Markle to friends during the joyful wedding.

At one point, the onlooker says that Harry got up and did a little dance for Markle.

According to local reports, Harry accompanied by a heavy security detail, as the Jamaica Observer put it arrived at the international airport at Montego Bay on Wednesday afternoon.Markleis believed to have flownin separately from her home in Toronto. The outlet says that the royalis planning tostay in the Caribbean for a week.

The wedding party is thought to be staying at the Round Hill Hotel and Resort in Montego Bay. The110-acre private enclave featuresluxury villasandoceanfront rooms.

After spending a romantic break with Harry in Norway, Markle spent much of January and February in London with Harry staying at his Nottingham Cottage in Kensington Palace but she returned to Toronto to prep for the filming of the next season of Suits in mid-February.

It just feels very natural for them both, a source told PEOPLE of the duos dynamic. It feels easy like theyve known each other for a long time.

Markle posted on Instagram earlier this month after a two-month hiatus from the social media platform, sending a positive message to her followers alongside a photo of her too-cute Charlotte Olympia cat flats below the text #NOBADENERGY.

Sending good vibes always in all ways, she captioned the snap.

Representatives for Kensington Palace and Markle would not comment.

Virgin Gorda, BVI (March 4, 2017) Race Day Three of the Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean brought more of the same sunny and breezy conditions that have characterised the week so far in Virgin Gorda as well as custom courses for the assembled fleet of Nautors Swan yachts. With just one more race day left in it, the Swan 90 Freya is looking comfortable at the top of the Maxi division where she leads Plis-Play by four points.

In the Grand Prix/Mini Maxi division the ClubSwan 50 Cuordileone retains her overall lead despite a spinnaker tear during todays race, while among the Mini Maxi boats the Swan 66 Bounty maintains a healthy delta. Organised by the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda in collaboration with Nautors Swan and title sponsor Rolex, this third edition of the biennial event concludes tomorrow, Sunday 5th March.

The Maxi division set off on schedule today on a 32 mile course that snaked through the islets off Virgin Gorda passing Great Camanoe and Scrub Island before rounding Ginger, at the south western tip of Virgin Gorda and embarking on a long reach back to the finish line off Necker Island. Don Macphersons Freya and Vicente Garcia Torres Plis-Play battled at the front of the pack for most of the duration, while the Swan 80 Selene and the Swan 82 Stay Calm fought for third place.

Victory in todays race took Freya to a total of three consecutive wins and she now looks set to be the overall division winner, save some major upset in tomorrows final race. The fight is on, however, for second place as Plis-Play sits just one point ahead of 2015 division winner Selene. All three boats may be experiencing a feeling of dej vu as a very similar battle unfolded at 2016 Rolex Swan Cup in Porto Cervo. In that instance Freya took a clear win while Plis-Play just managed to get the upper hand over Selene on the final day, whether fates will change in Caribbean climes will be revealed tomorrow.

The Mini Maxi and Grand Prix boats completed a shorter course that took them around the Dog Islands for a total of approximately 21 miles. As the two competing ClubSwan 50s settled in for their daily match race-style duel, Cuordileone suffered a massive spinnaker tear, and although she recovered admirably, the setback saw her loose time and points on the scoreboard. Gibb Kanes Bounty, with a mainly American crew, took first place in the division in todays race ahead of the other participating ClubSwan50 Earlybird, which vants Jochen Schuemann on tactics. The overall classification now sees Cuordileone just one point ahead of Earlybird with Bounty sitting one point further behind in third place.

'Pirates of the Caribbean' New Trailer Features Young Jack Sparrow - Variety

The market square market in Kingstown, the capital of St Vincent and the Grenadines, became the venue for an Ash Wednesday service this week.

It was celebrated by the Anglican Bishop of the Windward Islands, the Rt Reverend C Leopold Friday, assisted by Father Hanif H R Johnson and several ordained deacons and lay ministers. Three years ago after discussions with the former dean of St Georges Cathedral, the decision was taken to have a service in the Square at 12.15pm. Bishop Leopold: First of all we thought it would be a good thing to take the service of the imposition of ashes to the Market Square to meet people where they are and it provided an opportunity for us to share this with the wider community. Secondly, due to the fact that carnival is no longer held in St. Vincent and the Grenadines at the traditional time which was leading up to Ash Wednesday, there is a sense that people are no longer aware of when the Lenten season is, as such increasingly they pay less attention to it, he said.

Bishop Leopold said he sees it as part of the response to Gods call to mission - to proclaim the gospel and to teach: This is the third year that we have had the service at the Market Square and the response has been quite good. People would come and inquire of what is happening? What Ash Wednesday is all about? Over the years several persons after we informed them of what it is, decided to receive the imposition of the ashes even though they are not members of the Church or had never heard of it before. Similar services were held in other Carribean islands including Antigua.

Ash Wednesday derives its name from the practice of blessing ashes made from palm branches blessed on the previous year's Palm Sunday, and placing the ash, in the shape of a cross on the foreheads of participants to the accompaniment of the words "Repent, and believe in the Gospel" or "Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return".

Virgin Gorda, BVI (March 3, 2017) After a stunning start to proceedings in the third edition of the Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean yesterday, the fleet of Nautors Swan yachts gathered in Virgin Gorda for the event enjoyed equally exciting conditions as they completed todays round-the-island race.

A steady easterly of approximately 18 to 20 knots ushered the fleet around the course with the two competing Clubswan 50s completing the clockwise circumnavigation of Virgin Gorda in little over two and a half hours.

With two races now run, both the Swan 90 Freya and Leonardo Ferragamos Clubswan 50 hold tight to their leads at the top of the Maxi and Mini Maxi/Grand Prix divisions respectively.

Freya, Maxi Division leader, Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean 2017.

In the Maxi division B5 took an early lead but suffered an equipment failure early on which forced her to withdraw for the day. Don Macphersons Freya consequently found herself at the front of the fleet and refused to relinquish her lead for the remainder of the race, finishing with a comfortable lead over Plis-Play in second place and Selene in third.

With two consecutive victories under her belt Freya, division winner in the 2016 edition of the Rolex Swan Cup in Porto Cervo, now sits three points ahead of both Plis-Play and Selene.

The two spanking new Clubswan 50s continued to put on a spectacular show as they duelled their way around the course. And while it was German boat Earlybird that crossed the finish line first in real time yesterday, today Ferragamos Cuordileone claimed line honours in addition to her second victory in corrected time.

Bounty, Grand Prix/MiniMaxi Division, Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean 2017

Among the Mini Maxis, meanwhile, the American Swan 66 Bounty led the dances for the duration followed by Gryphon and Best Buddies. The smallest yacht in the fleet at 44 feet, the Ron Holland designed Best Buddies is sailing in the Caribbean edition of the Rolex Swan Cup for the first time although she has participated numerous times in the Porto Cervo edition and is a former division winner in the Rolex Middle Sea Race.

Crewed by a pool of friends and family, Best Buddies has been with owners Kay-Johannes and Susann Wrede for almost 20 years with the exception of a short hiatus in which she was sold, rediscovered by chance by the Wredes in poor condition some years later and then returned by them to her former glory, upon which they vowed never to be parted from her again. With an emphasis on fun but a history of winning and placing in top international regattas, Best Buddies is perhaps one of the participating yachts that best sums up the spirit of the Rolex Swan Cup regattas.

Weve been participating in a few races in the Caribbean and placing well but our final objective was to get here and compete in this event, explained owner Susann. Theres a special spirit at Swan events. I think it dates back to when Swan was smaller and known for building the most seaworthy yachts ever and fast and elegant; now they are even more elegant and bigger but the spirit is still there, its a Swan family and its just so much fun. This is a strong boat and she really is part of our family.

Racing is scheduled to continue tomorrow, Saturday 4th March at 12 midday with 16 to 18 knots of easterly breeze forecast. Racing concludes March 5.

"It says a lot of great things about the game's growth in diversity," said Moreno. "It also should tell MLB that they need to better market and place interest in Latinos to actually take advantage of that ever-growing crowd," he added.

Unfortunately there's legitimate concern that this could be the last edition of the World Baseball Classic. Moreno himself first broke the news through his

"How do you market the event without the awareness of even who will participate?" asked Moreno.

The fate of the World Baseball Classic remains to be seen. But for now, we can just enjoy the ride while it lasts. The 2017 edition of the WBC begins on March 6th.

Caribbean, Latin American Teams Ready for World Baseball Classic - NBCNews.com

The Rolex Swan Cup has been attracting fleets of Nautor's Swan boats to the iconic yachting haven of Porto Cervo, Sardinia since 1980. Although the Caribbean version of the event has just reached its third edition, it is already a firm fixture on the Caribbean racing calendar and has been gathering ever-more impressive fleets to the tropical sailing paradise of Virgin Gorda every two years since its institution. Eighteen yachts from around the globe are lined up at YCCS Marina for an event renowned for its unique combination of family atmosphere, thrilling racing and superb social events - a blend that organizers the Yacht Club Costa Smeralda have honed to perfection in over 30 years of collaboration with Nautor's Swan and title sponsor Rolex.

The variegated fleet bears testament to the Finnish shipyard's long history and to their commitment to both tradition and innovation. The models entered range from two of the latest Clubswan 50 one-design racer-cruiser models penned by Juan Kouyoumidjian to classic Sparkman and Stephens designs, and from two of the flagship Swan 115 superyachts to the dainty Best Buddies, a classic Swan 44 with a crew of friends and family that have travelled here from German especially for the event.

Each of the boats and crews here have their own story and their own special reason for participating, which is what sets the Rolex Swan Cup events in both Porto Cervo and Virgin Gorda apart from other regattas. Without doubt one of the most fascinating backstories of this particular edition is the participation of the historic Swan 65 Sayula. The surprise winner, in 1974, of the very first edition of the Whitbread Round the World Race - today known as the Volvo Ocean Race and still recognised as the most gruelling sailing challenge in existence - Sayula and her helmsman the late Ramon Carln were the subject of an award-winning 2016 documentary. Helmed now by Ramon's son Enrique, who was on board for the extraordinary victory in 1974, the Mexican boat sailed a journey over 3,000 nautical miles specifically to attend the Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean and boasts several generations of the Carln family among the crew.

"We came from Mexico specially just for the event." explained Enrique Carln. "We went from Puerto Vallarta, all the way down to the Panama Canal and we got here in about 20 days. We came to bring Sayula back together with the Swan family, to support this special brand, it's really a good brand, very strong. My two sons are on board and my grandchildren have already been at the helm of Sayula, so four generations of my family have helmed her."

Equally excited to participate, but with a decidedly more competitive spirit is Hendrik Brandis, owner of Earlybird, the latest Clubswan 50 hull which was christened at the YCCS Marina in Virgin Gorda just days ago. Together with Leonardo Ferragamo's Courdileone, these futuristic one-design yachts are sure to provide an electrifying spectacle in the easterly 20 knot breezes that are forecast for the coming days.

Brandis intends to enjoy becoming acquainted with his new yacht during its regatta debut: "We'll be getting to know the boat and as always with sailing, having a lot of fun. I must say the first days of sailing here in Virgin Gorda were impressive. This is the next generation, it's a planing boat and the downwind speed is just so much higher, it's a different kind of sailing. It's a great racer, it's one-design and it can even be used with the family for day sailing."

Racing is scheduled to get underway today, Thursday 2nd March at 11 a.m. with a coastal course planned for the fleet which will be divided into two separate classes.

In addition to exciting action on the water, the Rolex Swan Cup Caribbean also brings a host of happenings ashore. Owners and crews will attend an opening reception on the YCCS lawn this evening while a cocktail competition will have crews battling once again on Thursday evening. The elegant Rolex Dinner for owners at the YCCS Clubhouse and a relaxed Caribbean Barbecue at Bitter End Yacht Club will also take place before the final prize giving on Sunday March 5th.

Swans Flock to Caribbean - Sailing World

Starting this week, Royal Caribbean will become the second major cruise line in the world to employ lifeguards on deck.

The cruise company is implementing a new water safety program that will station at least one full-time lifeguard at every pool during open hours.

The lifeguards will all be licensed and trained through StarGuard Elite, a consulting company in Florida.

In addition to the lifeguards, Royal Caribbean will also roll out updates specifically aimed at younger passengers. Although the cruise line has offered childrens swim vests for the past few years, they are now implementing signage to remind parents of the option.

Children who are part of the Adventure Ocean kids program will also participate in a water safety presentation during their orientation.

The entire fleet will be up to Royal Caribbeans new water safety standards by June.

Royal Caribbean says the new program is meant to raise awareness amongst our guests about the importance of vigilance while enjoying water features on our ships.

Most cruise lines have a policy where guests swim in pools at their own risk. The only other cruise line with onboard lifeguards is Disney, who only began employing lifeguards in 2013, after a near-drowning on one of their ships.

Royal Caribbean becomes second cruise line to add lifeguards - Fox News

Womens participation in the global workforce has fallen 2 percent since 1990. But its a different case in Latin America and the Caribbean, where its jumped 14 points. The region saw women join the workforce at a faster pace than anywhere else in the world, adding up to 80 million more working women since the 1960s.

More women joining the labor force can also translate to billions more in a countrys GDP. For example, UK-based auditing firm PricewaterhouseCoopers estimates that Chiles GDP could see an increase of 19 percentor $80 billionif it were to match Swedens female employment rate, which stands at about 75 percent.

Getting women into the workforce, however, and into top decision-making roles in companies is another story. Latin America lags behind other regions with only 6.4 percent of board seats held by women. At that pace, itll take until 2042 for women to make up 30 percent of board seatsa general threshold companies and governments consider when drafting legislation or goals. U.S. and Canadian businesses, on the other hand, are expected to get there by 2021.

Ahead of International Womens Day 2017 on March 8, we look at how the region fares.

Weekly Chart: Women in the Workforce in Latin America and the ... - AS/COA Online

Alex Young dinks one over the keeper. Photograph: Colorsport/Rex Shutterstock

1) Earlier this week, Alex Young, the Golden Vision, died. Heres Ken Loachs 1968 documentary about him and Everton; heres the trailer for Alex The Great; heres an interview with the great man from 2008; and here he is finishing a lovely move in clinical fashion, away to Wolves in October 1962.

2) Englands one-day cricketers are in the Caribbean, and the ODI series begins on Friday; heres an all-time great innings from Graham Gooch, 129 not out in Port of Spain, 1985-86. In the early era of pyjama cricket, West Indies could call upon the wonderful fielding of Roger Harper; in the Perth Challenge of 1986-87, he snaffled a jazzer to remove Allan Lamb, and heres a compilation of other interventions. More recently, Chris Gayle has had his way with England, so here he is tickling 80 off 43 balls at Barbados in 2009.

3) Apparently, David Haye will fight Tony Bellew this weekend. Heres Carl Thompson stopping Haye in 2004, and here are Adonis Stevenson and Tony Bellew exchanging pre-fight pleasantries in 2013, before Stevenson bombed him out in the sixth.

4) Once upon a time, Dunfermline were a force in European football. In 1962, under Jock Stein, they eliminated Evertons School of Science from the Fairs Cup; in the next round, they lost 4-0 in Valencia before thrashing them 6-2 in the return. And here they are in 1968, now managed by George Farm, beating Hearts 3-1 to win the Scottish Cup.

5) Venezuelas Adrian Solano chose a tough place to ski on snow for the first time, making a memorable appearance at the Nordic world championships in Lahti, Finland last week. Solano had only ever practiced on wheeled skis, and to be honest, it showed:

1) This is mad, and perhaps what GoPros were made for. Jumping, flying, snaking and sneaking through the beautiful streets of Valparaso in Chile makes for an exhilarating, dizzying ride whether its actually you doing it or youre just watching. Tomas Slavik and Bernardo Cruz are your guides and the best thing about it is that its Slavik commentating; the increasingly fraught pants as they get closer to the end are a joy to behold. Strap in.

2) Inspired by that man Roger Harper, and riffing on the theme of cricket fielding here are some of the very best ever, and its a very good watch. At the other end of the spectrum there was less fielding brilliance required because, well, Inzamam-ul-Haq is a roly-poly sort of fellow who isnt always the quickest between the wickets. So here are his 23 funniest run outs. Twenty-three! While were at it, more cricket: Jack Iverson, who took 21 wickets in five Tests to spin Australia to a 4-1 victory in the 1950-51 Ashes, before promptly retiring to take over his old mans real estate business. Strange old grip, but boy it worked.

3) Nadezhda Olizarenko died last month, so here she is smashing the 800m world record to take gold at the Moscow Olympics in 1980. As has been mentioned BTL, that record has only been bettered by 0.15s in the 37 years since.

4) From leftfield, heres the cyclist Peter Sagan cooking beef. And quinoa and tuna. Even a chia pudding! Why, we hear you wail? Why? Well, he rides for Bora and they make kitchen kit. So obviously hes a chef now ... Ropey trilby hes rocking.

5) To round things off, last week there was a bit of patter about gaffers taking things into their own hands. So over to you, Kevin Muscat, to put them in their place ... Oh wait, John Kosminas grabbed his neck. Decent ding-dong.
