What it’s about. She slices through the water's surface with explosive power. Sail, spear, and a half ton of muscle flash in the sun. Then just as suddenly she vanishes to resume her endless race through the open ocean. Her journeys are epic. Her life cycle, bizarre.

Renowned for its formidable spear and sword-like bills, the species includes the spectacular marlin, swordfish, spearfish and sailfish.
