pirate Re: Interesting 'bluewater' test !! RTW
Why do I get the impression that folks think this will be Vendee Globe style sailing.. I very much doubt it.. it'll more likely be normal sailing RKJ style.. mainly downwind.. and an occasional dive off the bow and swim like crazy till the stern comes level.. just to keep up fitness levels..
Doubt there'll be hydraulics and the electric winches on most of todays toys..
Solo's only as exhausting as you want it to be..
