Elvis SWE 05 Racing Yacht.
I captured this and other images of the Swedish Racing Yacht SWE 05 when she was sailing down Southampton Water just off the Fawley Oil Refinery on the 10th October 2019. After a very recent Internet search about her history I now believe the name Filip Engelbert at the base of her main sail is that of her owner and that the yacht's name is Elvis. She is in the Fast 40+ class of Racing Yachts and there is information on-line about her recent racing history. When I photographed her she was not racing so my conclusion is that she was on a training sail.
