very well done. could not tell how many days it took. Fast boat!!!! I do not race but cruise and the thought of solo offshore putting up a chute at 20 knots makes me dry in the mouth.
Watching you surviving through those windy, squally, damp days and nights and hearing you saying that you were freezing makes me think that my life is not so bad after all. Thanks for sharing a great video. I enjoyed it.
you probably dont give a damn but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Nicolas Torin thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
What nav equipment did you add? What did you do to the electrical system to handle it. I just bought a ten and I’m gonna do the solo Newport Bermuda race
Hi John, I went with one Group 31 AGM and group 24 starting battery, charged via 150 watts of solar. Small Garmin chartplotter stayed off most of the time, AIS stays on. Make sure your forestay attachments are in good shape.
Excellent video

Hi Maty, it's a Raymarine X5. There's a cover on the drive arm to keep water off.
Wow, and then you went on to become a Special Counsel. Amazing!! :)
That took guts. I wouldn't have sailed my 10 in Lake Erie alone, let alone to Hawaii.
Tens are built a bit light for offshore , but great boats!
