By Nina Done   22 December 2022

Launched in October, the 75m (246ft) custom support vessel WINGMAN is currently undertaking sea trials in the Netherlands, close to the Vlissingen facilities where she was built. 

Officially known as Hull YS 7512, the yacht boasts Damen’s signature profile and showcases a grey hull with a striking orange boot stripe. Her custom design draws largely on the YS 75 model which represents Damen ’s largest support range offering a wealth of features.

The 1,900 GT yacht boasts a wide 12.6-meter beam and will provide exceptional storage for specialist marine gear and tenders, together with a range of toys, including a submarine and scuba dive facilities. She also comes equipped with a custom crane for lifting the toys and tenders and a hangar for a helicopter with a D14 value. Yacht WINGMAN will have a cruising range of 5,000 nm and an impressive top speed of 18 knots.

She will also provide accommodation for up to 45, including crew and other specialist staff, as well as an additional 4 guests across two luxury suites.

yacht support vessels are revolutionizing luxury yachting

Since 2009 Damen has delivered 20 support yachts between 45 and 75 meters to clients around the world, including the 72-meter yacht  GAME CHANGER and 46-meter yacht  BAD COMPANY , which are both currently available for charter. Rob Luijendijk, Director of Sales at Damen Yachting, ventures that “yacht support vessels are revolutionizing luxury yachting”

She will be the largest yacht support vessel built to date upon delivery, which is expected in early 2023. Following the successful completion of sea trials, it is reported that she will be handed over to her US owner, the Amazon founder Jeff Bezos  to cruise alongside his  sailing yacht KORU .

It is not expected that support vessel WINGMAN will be available for charter once delivered.

Support Vessels: shadows concierges

Shadow or Support Vessels (SV) are to the nautical sector what ghost-writers are to literature – essential but invisible . Derived from oil platform support craft, they service megayachts and range in size between 20 and 90 metres. What sets them apart is their enormous power and exceptionally perfect seakeeping. They’re also quietly gaining a very solid foothold in the world of yachting.  An SV’s main job is the free up the mother ship of bulky toys and helicopters and, when not being used by the crew, improve onboard comfort.  Aside from the tenders, an SV can stow anything an owner likes from sailing boats to personal submersibles, decompression chambers and even full-size gyms.

Inigo Toledo project

They also come with a much lower price tag than a megayacht and so it makes more financial sense to opt for an additional SV craft than extending the mother ship by a few metres. The advantages are enormous. You could have, for instance, a permanent helipad rather than a touch-and-go. SVs can also be send out as an advance party in waters deemed unsafe. They really just make life simpler. Not just because they transport your   toys, they can go ahead and have all the latter deployed by the time the mother ship arrives and then retrieve it all once she has left. There are currently three main support vessel builders: Lynx Yacht and Damen in Holland, and Piriou in France .

Lynx unveiled its first SV in September, a 20-metre and the entry level model in the YXT range which spans vessels of up to 36 metres, with 45 square metres of deck for tender stowage plus empty spaces below deck.

YXT20m

Damen has an SV-dedicated brand with 43 to 89-metre models, on which it is focusing for the future.

Damen Fast&Furious

Piriou launched an SV line comprising three models of between 40 and 63 metres just last year. These are pared-back but very versatile craft but the 63-metre in particular is very good-looking and intriguingly versatile.

Piriou 63

However, there are other yards that have mixed-purpose craft which, although they wouldn’t have the same extreme capabilities as SVs, would make quite an acceptable compromise.

Arcadia , for example, recently presented the 17.9-metre Sherpa, the open version of which has a 40 square metre cockpit and so is suitable for SV use.

Arcadia Sherpa 20

Rossinavi , for its part, unveiled the Argo . Designed by  Ken Freivokh, this 48-metre revolutionises the explorer concept and reveals a distinct SV vocation. It has, for example, a custom crane that can  launch any boat or toy of up to 12 metres and then retrieve it for stowage on either of two decks. The aft end of the lower deck can even be fitted with a touch-and-go helipad.

Rossinavi - Argo 48

More of an explorer than a support vessel is Columbus Yacht’s Tomahawk 52 which does, however, have an enormous empty deck for tenders and toys complete with an in-your-face crane. 40 to 100-metre versions are also available.

Columbus Tomahawk

Of course, there’s hardly a yacht designer that hasn’t got an SV of their own hidden away somewhere.

Federico Santa Maria and Valentina Magnolfi, for instance, have penned the quirky, innovative Bug 30 with a wheelhouse that looks like a control tower. This striking boat has strong lines and was designed with a focus on seakeeping and safety. A SWATH (Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull) gives it superb stability too and delivers a helipad that meets LY3 standards despite the Bug’s compact size.  The only slight downside is that it partly reduces below-decks volumes.

Bug30 Santamaria Magnolfi

Studio Zuccon’s Shadow 44 is a little larger and despite having typical SV lines and main deck, can also be used as a pleasure craft as it has three two-berth cabins and a large day area on the main deck. The upper deck is reserved for the owner and has direct access to the helipad.

Shadow 74 Zuccon International

Van Geest Design joined forces with Marimecs to produce a thoroughbred 62-metre SV with captivating lines designed. It will support megayachts of 85 to 160 metres. It has over 300 square metres of deck space and is also large enough for a helicopter hangar that wouldn’t impinge on the use of the touch-and-go pad.

62 metri disegnato da Peter Van Geest

Lastly, Sergio Cutolo ’s 60-metre is a futuristic take with a central tower vaguely reminiscent of the superyacht A’s and two helipads (one  aft and the other forward).

Rosetti 85 - Support Vessel

New player rosetti superyachts enters the market with an 85m support vessel concept. the yacht comes with two deck layouts. one with a central helipad and one with fully certified helicopter deck aft above the owner's area..

Rosetti Superyachts is the new superyacht brand of the Rosetti Marino Group that has shipbuilding roots in 1925 and delivered 119 vessels between 40 and 140m to date. Now they enter the superyacht sector with the aim to built luxury yachts, support vessels and expedition yachts from 40 to 150m.

The first and biggest concept is an 85m support vessel with a helipad that was designed by Tommaso Spadolini  in cooperation with Rolls-Royce Marine in Norway (naval architecture). Spadolini will develop the design of a fleet in a range that starts from 48m.

“ I went straight to Tommaso because he has a flexible approach, which is not true of all designers ,”  says Dodich . “ The result is a genuine expedition superyacht that I believe meets the aspirations of the market and the practical requirements of the shipyard .”

Rosetti Superyachts 85m Motor Yacht Design

Partner and Chairman of Rosetti Superyachts is Fulvio Dodich who was in the management of yacht brands like San Lorenzo and Ferretti.

“We took the decision to launch this initiative based on Rosetti Marino’s remarkable experience, solid financial background and exceptional facilities to create a series of high-level superyachts with semi-custom or fully customisable identities, as well as providing technical excellence and innovative solutions,” says Dodich  “We are proposing Made in Italy yachts that are designed and built to the highest technical and safety standards that distinguish the whole Rosetti Marino Group of companies.”

Interior Design

Spadolini developed also the interior design but you can also bring your own designer to meet your personal requirements.

The concept has a full-beam owner’s deck with the suite forward. Furthermore, the deck contains a walk-in wardrobe and aft dining room. The upper deck extends the private area with lounge, study, and access to the foredeck.

Rosetti Superyachts 85m Motor Yacht InteriorDesign

The yacht will be powered by a Rolls-Royce diesel-electric propulsion with four MTU 16V 4000 engines coupled with Azipull thrusters to ensure a comfortable trip with low vibration and noise levels and save maneuvers. The yacht has a top speed of 20 knots and a cruising speed of 15 knots.

67m Damen Yachting support vessel Dapple

67m Damen Yachting support vessel Dapple sold

The 67.2-metre Damen Yachting support vessel Dapple has been sold with Ben Ritchie of Y.CO . The broker said that she was under contract just 18  days after being announced for sale by Y.CO.

Dapple was built for an avid scuba diver as a support vessel to a mothership and customised with a full dive centre and large professional decompression chamber for extra safety when travelling off the beaten track. 

She was delivered in 2014 and her owner had spent over $5,000,000 on refit work and technical upgrades since 2020, with more spent in the winter yard period, including a 10-year class survey. 

The steel and aluminium vessel offers "250 square metres of deck cargo space", a 45-square-metre garage and a 35-square-metre dive store. Among her many toys and tenders, she carries an 11.5-metre Intrepid 375 Nomad, a 7.5-metre Protector and an eight-metre custom landing craft, all launched and recovered via a knuckle boom crane. Dapple can also support helicopter or submarine operations, with a maximum helicopter take-off weight of 4,850kg. 

Accommodating 20 crew in 13 cabins in support mode, Dapple can equally operate as a standalone explorer with three of the cabins used as guest staterooms and the crew reduced to 16. Additionally, there are two extra bunks if required – one Pullman and one in the hospital. The interior has a comfortable, open-plan saloon and generously sized crew mess in addition to a fully-equipped gym and ample garage space for extra toys or equipment such as dive gear.

One of her coolest interior features is the wheelhouse, which offers 360-degree views with a seating area for guests to witness the action.

The 1,142GT, LR-classed yacht has a maximum speed of 22 knots and a range of 8,700 nautical miles at 13.5 knots. 

Dapple was asking €28,000,000.

The Best Sneakers For Arch Support, According To Podiatrists

  • Share to Facebook
  • Share to Twitter
  • Share to Linkedin

Whether you go for long walks, spend full days on your feet or simply want to maximize your comfort, the best sneakers for arch support deliver a lot of benefits. Boosted with extra cushioning, “these shoes offer superior shock absorption,”says Nathaniel Alabi, DPM, foot and ankle surgeon at Texas Heart And Vein Multispecialty Group in Houston. “This cushioning acts as a buffer between your feet and the ground, reducing the stress on your joints and muscles.” After researching the options and consulting experts, we determined that Asics’ Gel-Kayano 30 is the overall best sneaker for arch support while Hoka’s Arahi 7 is the best for cushioning.

The best sneakers for arch support cradle your foot with unique features to prevent pain.

Ahead, you’ll find all the top-rated sneakers that passed our in-depth review process and help prevent foot pain and fatigue. When it comes to your heath, after all, “shoes are our first defense,” says Dan Geller , DPM, podiatrist and chief medical officer at Kane Footwear in New York City. Here are the expert-approved pairs that we highly recommend:

  • Best Sneaker For Arch Support Overall: Asics Gel-Kayano 30
  • Best Cushioned Sneaker For Arch Support: Hoka Arahi 7
  • Best Stability Sneaker For Arch Support: Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23
  • Best Running Sneaker For Arch Support: Saucony Guide 14
  • Most Comfortable Sneaker For Arch Support: New Balance Fresh Foam X 880V14
  • Best Arch Support Sneaker For Narrow Feet: On Cloudrunner
  • Best Arch Support Sneaker For Wide Feet: Altra Provision 7
  • Best Affordable Sneaker For Arch Support: Nike Pegasus 40

The Best Overall Sneaker for Arch Support

Tried-and-true balanced shoe, asics gel-kayano 30 (men's, women's).

Sizes: 5 to 16 | Weight:  10.7 ounces |  Cushion:  Maximum |  Heel-to-toe-drop:  10 millimeters

Geller recommends this workhorse of shoe from Asics, which is so reliable that it is in its 30th iteration. “The Asics Gel-Kayano line is often praised for its exceptional support and comfort,” agrees Dr. Shital Sharma, DPM, podiatrist at Pinewood Family Care Co in Jersey City. That’s because this shoe has a soft, medial support system, says Geller, which helps stabilize the inner arch. This allows the foot to properly roll outward during the propulsion phase of your gait (when you push off the ground), he says. Both podiatrists also love the gel in the heel, which absorbs shock, transferring less stress onto your joints, so they’re ideal for running, walking and casual wear.

Best Cushioned Sneakers For Arch Support

Colorful and comfortable, hoka arahi 7 (men's, women's).

Sizes: 5 to 15 | Weight:  9.9 ounces |  Cushion:  Moderate |  Heel-to-toe drop:  5 millimeters

All the podiatrists we spoke to praised the Hoka Arahi for its exceptional cushioning and responsive ride. Even with the extra padding, this shoe feels incredibly lightweight, says Dr. Sharma. You also won’t feel unstable as you walk or run: The heel-to-toe drop is only five millimeters, almost as if your foot is on an even plane. What sets this shoe apart from the rest, though, is the J-shaped internal frame, which “better controls heel strike,” says Geller. Instead of your heel rolling around, you’ll get the support you need to stay in line throughout your entire stride.

Best Stability Sneaker For Arch Support

Support on both sides to keep your foot in line, brooks adrenaline gts 23 (men's, women's).

Sizes: 5 to 15 | Weight:  10.1 ounces |  Cushion:  Moderate |  Heel-to-toe drop:  12 millimeters

If you have flat to medium arches, Sharma and Alabi both recommend the Brooks Adrenaline. It incorporates the brand’s GuideRails system (think of it like bumpers in a bowling lane), which is designed to prevent too much movement, says Sharma. This feature can be especially useful for runners or walkers who tend to overpronate, or collapse inward at the ankle. The most recent model of the Adrenaline got a big upgrade from previous versions, with a light, squishy midsole to keep you feeling comfortable mile after mile, and a breathable upper that wicks moisture.

Best Running Sneaker For Arch Support

Puts even more pep in your step, saucony guide 17 (men's, women's).

Sizes: 5 to 16 | Weight:  9.4 ounces |  Cushion:  Moderate |  Heel-to-toe-drop:  6 millimeters

Saucony makes solid all-around running shoes, but their responsive “Pwrrun” foam makes running fast feel so much easier. This shoe won’t be as soft as their maximum cushion varieties, but it has “a good balance of cushioning and support, making it suitable for runners with mild to moderate pronation,” says Sharma. The upper is padded and comfortable with a snug fit to enhance agility, and the outsole is durable so you can put it through the wringer on your daily training miles.

Sizes: 5 to 16 | Weight (per shoe):  9.5 ounces |  Cushion:  Moderate |  Heel-To-Toe Drop:  10 millimeters

New Balance is known to make some of the most comfortable shoes in the game, thanks to its Fresh Foam cushioning—and all three podiatrists agree. This shoe not only has that in droves, but also has the features that those seeking arch support need. “The New Balance medial post is iconic,” says Geller. “Think of it as a kickstand of sorts. By allowing firm support of the medial arch and stability of the first big toe, the foot and ankle cannot migrate inward.” When your foot stays in place, you can transition better from heel to toe as you push off the ground. Best of all, it’s one of the lightest shoes on this list, making it a great choice for those days when you’re constantly on your feet.

Best Arch Support Sneaker For Narrow Feet

Secure fit, minus any rubbing or sliding, on cloudrunner (men's, women's).

Sizes: 5 to 14 | Weight:  10.5 ounces |  Cushion:  Maximum |  Heel-to-toe drop:  9 millimeters

The On Cloudrunner stands out for its sleek, streamlined aesthetic and comes approved by Alabi. It’s lightly supportive, lying somewhere in between a neutral and a stability shoe, as it has thicker mesh on the inner edge of the shoe but lacks any denser foam features you might not need. The integrated Speedboard—a rigid panel beneath the footbed—creates a firm ride, but it’s paired with a soft, bouncey foam sole so you get the best of both worlds. FYI: This shoe also comes in a wide fit if you want a more generous toe box.

Best Arch Support Sneaker For Wide Feet

A wide toe box for a natural foot position, altra provision 7 (men's, women's).

Sizes: 6 to 15 | Weight:  9.6 ounces |  Cushion:  Moderate |  Heel-to-toe drop:  0 millimeters

According to Geller, the Provision 7 is a “middle-of-the-road arch protector. Not too firm and not too soft,” he says. “Good for those of us who need some mild protection in the arch.” But this shoe isn’t like others on the list: Altra has gained a massive following for its zero-drop running shoes, which means that the heel is not raised above the toe, and wide toe boxes. Some people find this beneficial for maintaining a natural foot position (as if you were barefoot), and the American Podiatric Medical Association (APMA) even gave this shoe a seal of acceptance that it promotes good foot health.

Best Affordable Sneaker For Arch Support

Comfortable, sleek and classic, nike pegasus 40 (men's, women's).

Sizes: 5 to 13 | Weight:  10.1 ounces |  Cushion:  Moderate |  Heel-to-toe drop:  10 millimeters

This back-to-the-basics sneaker is approved by podiatrist Alabi because of its versatility—a strap around the midfoot ensures a secure foot for all arch shapes and sizes. Moderate cushioning is soft enough for comfort during longer runs or walks, but it’s stiff enough that it won’t slow you down. Compared to other shoes on this list, it is a neutral shoe (instead of a stability shoe), which means that it won’t have built-in support to keep your foot in line, but it does have extra padding for comfort along the arch. If you’re looking for a relatively affordable and long-lasting sneaker, the Pegasus 40 fits the bill.

Most americans support abortion for pregnancy-related emergencies.

Most Americans also say women should be allowed to travel for medical care – including an abortion, a new KFF poll finds. Gracey Zhang for NPR hide caption

Most Americans also say women should be allowed to travel for medical care – including an abortion, a new KFF poll finds.

In the almost two years since Roe v. Wade was overturned, the unintended consequences of abortion bans have become clearer.

NPR has reported on women who were denied care for miscarriages and high-risk pregnancies , including Jaci Statton of Oklahoma, who was told she had to wait in a hospital parking lot until her non-viable pregnancy became life threatening.

In Oklahoma, a woman was told to wait until she's 'crashing' for abortion care

Statton, who is in her 20s, says hospital staff told her, "We cannot touch you unless you are crashing in front of us or your blood pressure goes so high that you are fixing to have a heart attack."

Stories like this have increased awareness of how abortion bans are impacting health care during pregnancy. That may be reflected in the results of a new poll from the health research organization KFF, which finds there is a broad consensus – 86% of Americans – that women in such pregnancy-related emergencies should have access to abortion procedures.

This support crosses party lines – including nearly 8 in 10 Republicans, says KFF pollster Ashley Kirzinger .

"While they may be anti-abortion in most cases, they don't want to limit access to basic medical care for these women who are really experiencing kind of the worst-case scenarios," she says.

There is also strong support across party lines for allowing women to travel for medical care – including getting an abortion. And the poll finds most people don't want doctors who perform abortions – or women who have them – to face criminal charges.

"We see 8 in 10 Democrats, two-thirds of Independents and about half of Republicans who want to protect doctors who perform abortions from facing either fines or prison time," Kirzinger says.

This includes protecting doctors who prescribe abortion pills — 62% of respondents say health care providers should not be prosecuted for mailing abortion pills to patients who live in states where abortion is banned.

When it comes to the 2024 election, the poll found that abortion is not the top issue for most voters, although it does resonate strongly with certain groups.

Only 12% of all voters say it's the most important issue. But women of reproductive age (18 to 49), Black women and women who live in states with abortion bans were more likely to rank abortion as the most important issue influencing their vote this November.

Iconic 'little blue boat' that calls Montrose Bay home up for sale after family makes tough decision

For almost 50 years a little blue boat has been moored on the River Derwent in Hobart's northern suburbs by the side of a busy highway.

It is known affectionately by many Tasmanians as "the little blue boat", and has floated alone next to the Brooker Highway at Montrose Bay over the decades.

Sea Breeze, its official name, was built by Robin Attrill in his Montrose backyard in the early 1970s.

His son Colin Attrill said the boat was launched at Macquarie Wharf in 1976.

"It's been on the mooring in Montrose Bay ever since, and that's why it's such an iconic little blue boat," he said.

Tasmanians curious about 'little blue boat'

The boat is an object of fascination for Brooker Highway motorists and foreshore walkers due to it seemingly never moving.

Colin Attrill said it was "absolutely amazing" the number of people who would stop and talk to him about the boat when he was launching the dinghy to go and check on it.

"The number of people that talk to me that are walking past and go 'that boat has been there forever' and 'it was there when I was going to school or every day when I've been driving to work'," he said.

"Some people say they've never seen it move. Well it used to move all the time.

"Of late it's slowed up, we're all busy and dad has slowed up. We lost mum and once that happened it impacted on family activities."

Tough decision to sell

Its owner is now 91 and the boat has not been sailed for about 10 years.

Colin Attrill said the family had recently made the tough decision to try to sell the boat.

"Dad isn't well and he's gotten old, which we all do, and the boat's got old," he said.

"Anyone who knows about a timber boat knows that they need maintenance."

Mr Attrill said the family used to put the boat on the slip at least once a year to clean and antifoul it, and do any repairs.

"But the past few years Dad has been unable to do anything, and the boat unfortunately has just sat on the mooring," he said.

He said the family decided it was time for the boat to have a new owner.

"Nobody is using it, it needs a new owner who will give it the time and get the enjoyment out of it that we had growing up," he said.

"It's a great boat, and there are many years left. Wooden boats just last."

'Next phase' for the boat

The Attrill family is full of passionate sailors and Robin's brother Peter represented Australia in sailing at the Helsinki Olympics in 1952 — Tasmania's fifth Olympian and the first to represent the state in sailing.

When Robin finished building the 25-foot river cruiser, known by the family as The Breeze, it was used for trips away around Hobart.

"We used to have family trips down the channel, down to Cygnet, down to Dover, and all places in between fishing and weekends away," he said.

"We also used to go to events in Hobart like the Hobart Regatta, the Sandy Bay Regatta. We'd be down the river at any chance, or up the river. She made it to New Norfolk a couple of times.

"The boat was all over the place, wherever we could."

Mr Attrill said it would be a sad day when the boat left Montrose Bay after almost 50 years.

"We will see where it goes and where it ends up and what's the next phase for the boat," he said.

Over the years its owner has been keeping a watchful eye on it just a matter of metres away, across the Brooker Highway from his Montrose home of more than 70 years.

"He's always been there. He'd open the blinds in the morning in the kitchen and look out the window and there's the boat," son Colin said.

"It's always been a part of his life."

Blinken underscores ‘ironclad’ support for the Philippines as it clashes with China in disputed sea

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken shakes hands with Philippines' Secretary of Foreign Affairs Enrique Manalo at the Sofitel Hotel in Manila, Philippines, on March 19.

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Secretary of State Antony Blinken underscored Washington’s “ironclad commitment” Tuesday to help defend the Philippines in case of an armed attack against its forces after clashes between Chinese and Filipino coast guards in the disputed South China Sea recently turned more hostile.

Blinken, the latest high-level official to visit the United States treaty ally, met his Philippine counterpart Enrique Manalo on Tuesday before separately meeting President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. in Manila.

President Joe Biden will host Marcos and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in a White House summit in April. The three are likely to discuss growing concerns over increasingly aggressive Chinese actions in the South China Sea and North Korea’s nuclear program.

“We stand with the Philippines and stand by our ironclad defense commitments, including under the Mutual Defense Treaty,” Blinken said in a news conference with Manalo.

“We have a shared concern about the PRC’s actions that threaten our common vision for a free, open Indo-Pacific, including in the South China Sea and in the Philippines’ exclusive economic zone,” Blinken said, using the abbreviation for the People’s Republic of China. He cited “repeated violations of international law and the rights of the Philippines: water cannons, blocking maneuvers, close shadowing other dangerous operations.”

The Chinese coast guard blocked and used water cannons against Philippine vessels in a confrontation two weeks ago that slightly injured a Filipino admiral and four of his sailors near the disputed Second Thomas Shoal. The March 5 faceoff in the high seas also caused two minor collisions between Chinese and Philippine vessels and prompted Manila’s Department of Foreign Affairs to summon China’s deputy ambassador to convey a protest against the Chinese coast guard’s actions, which the Philippines said were unacceptable.

The Chinese coast guard said then that “it took control measures in accordance with the law against Philippine ships that illegally intruded into the waters adjacent to Ren’ai Reef,” the name Beijing uses for Second Thomas Shoal.

The Second Thomas Shoal, which is occupied by a small Philippine navy contingent but surrounded by Chinese coast guard ships and other allied vessels, was the site of several tense skirmishes between Chinese and Philippine coast guard ships in the past year. But Filipino officials said the confrontation earlier this month was particularly serious because of the injuries sustained by its navy personnel and damage to their vessel.

Blinken renewed a warning Tuesday that the U.S. is obligated under a 1951 Mutual Defense Treaty to defend the Philippines if Filipino forces, ships or aircraft come under an armed attack anywhere in the South China Sea.

In Beijing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian rejected Blinken’s comments on Chinese aggression in the South China Sea.

“The U.S. is not a party to the South China Sea issue and has no right to intervene in maritime issues between China and the Philippines,” Lin said. “China will continue to take necessary measures to firmly defend its territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests and maintain peace and stability in the South China Sea.”

Both Blinken and Manalo described their countries’ treaty alliance as being on “hyper-drive,” but acknowledged that more could be done. They said efforts to shore up defense ties were not aimed against any country.

Beijing has repeatedly said that Marcos’ decision to allow the expansion of American military presence in the Philippines under a 2014 defense pact could undermine the security of China and the region.

U.S. and Philippine forces plan to hold their largest annual combat exercises in April in the Philippines. The area would include a northern region just a sea away from Taiwan, which China claims as its own territory.

“We reaffirmed our shared view that a strong and capable Philippines would make a formidable ally for the United States,” Manalo said.

Blinken said that “the alliance has never been stronger, but we not only have to sustain that, we have to continue to accelerate the momentum.”

Outside the presidential palace in Manila, dozens of left-wing activists tore a mock U.S. flag in a noisy rally Tuesday to oppose Blinken’s visit and Washington’s involvement in the long-simmering territorial disputes.

Aside from China and the Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan and Brunei also have overlapping claims in the resource-rich and busy waterway, a key global trade route.

Beijing claims almost the entire South China Sea. In the past decade, China has turned barren reefs into seven islands that now serve as missile-protected island bases — including three with runways — that have bolstered its capability to fortify its territorial claims and patrols.

In response, Washington has been strengthening an arc of military alliances and security ties in the Indo-Pacific, including with the Philippines, Vietnam and other countries at odds with China in the disputed sea.

After China effectively seized another disputed atoll — the Scarborough Shoal off the northwestern Philippines — in 2012, Manila brought its disputes with Beijing to international arbitration and largely won. China, however, rejected the 2016 ruling of the United Nations-backed tribunal that invalidated its expansive claims on historical grounds, and continues to defy the decision.

Associated Press journalists Joeal Calupitan and Aaron Favila in Manila, the Philippines, and Christopher Bodeen in Taipei, Taiwan, contributed to this report.
