Her Albin Vega 27ft yacht is aptly named FEAR, which could, she says, mean 'Forget Everything and Run' but to Jazz this name inspires her to 'Face Everything and Rise'. The yacht, with its colourful mermaid-design, is where Jazz finds freedom thanks to the adaptations she has made because on land she has to use a wheelchair - a result of hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome.

BENETEAU OCEANIS 47
If volume is your thing, the Beneteau Oceanis 47 has bags of it. Sharing a similar hull to the Finot Conq lines of the previous Oceanis 46.1, the 4.5m of beam and full-length chine carries the volume both all the way aft, and a long way forward. This gives room for multiple layout options, from three cabins and two heads for the owner version, up to four cabins and four heads, or five cabins and three heads. For a boat of this size, it's notable that the forward bulkhead is relatively far aft, almost to the mast support, giving a huge amount of space to the forward cabin(s).
