Du machst das Rennen erst so richtig spannend, Boris! Wir drücken dir die Daumen, dass dein Plan aufgeht! ❤👍
Da bin ich dabei.
A true sailor, describing life - admirable and very much appreciated, dear Boris. Get home safe and be well. Thank you so very much for sharing.
Dear Boris! Thanks for not always going for the easy and obvious decisions, but actually taking the risks to try something new and also for sharing your experience so openly in your unique and authentic style. Be safe and be fast!
Based on how the weather systems have played out and where you ended up in them, your choice to go north, and go for the win, is very defensible. Go Boris! Go Malizia!
Dear Boris,
the tracker and your videos have once again become my constant companion. I
thank you for sharing with us us your fascinating sport with all its uncertainties and...
facets so close and telling us your thoughts, strategies and feelings
to participate.
You are the antithesis of a grumpy sea dog and not just a sporty one
role model for weighing up risks and opportunities, prudence, composure, but
always perseverance and achieving the goal with a good result.
Greetings from Cologne, Mast und Schotbruch für Boris and Team Malizia.
Der Subtext dieses Videos ist so toll! Während die anderen Segler davon berichten, was die letzten Tage für eine Hölle waren, wie erschöpft oder frustriert sie sind, weil sie alles mögliche versuchen, um voranzukommen, hat Boris Zeit, Artikel zu lesen, in denen über seine Route spekuliert wird, und diese zu kommentieren. 😅 So strategisch spannend waren die letzten Rennen auf jeden Fall nicht und alleine deshalb, hoffe ich, dass diese Route belohnt wird. Wir warten gespannt im Ziel auf die Malizia! 🙂
Love the Plan / Love the Risk
Love the Anticipation of watching it all unfold!
Thank you Boris. Thank you Team Malizia!
"Nothing ventured - nothing gained".
May you gain all you wish for, Boris. Thank you so much for sharing so openly. Refreshing, envigorating and heartwarming. Thank you.
It’s so funny to see the best cockpit in a Imoca working this well. It looks as if Boris is sitting in a studio. 😊
With the improvements of the two chairs I bet all the competitors are envious 😅
Any Imoca built from here and forward must consider this design 👍🏼
Danke Boris für deine ausführliche Erklärung und ich wünsche dir, dass deine Planung mit den dazugehörigen Wetterprognosen aufgeht💯‼️Viel Glück 🍀🍀🍀🍀and stay safe😃🤙🏼🌬⛵️🚀
Always go with your Gut Boris! 100% behind you and hoping you make it for your Daughters Birthday.
Jau, danke für die Erklärung. Bin erst mal froh, dass der Nordkurs seine strategische Wahl war und nicht einem Malheur geschuldet. Dann drück ich die Daumen, dass der Wind bald die Segel füllt und die Malizia nach Hause treibt. 🤞👍❤️🐻🐻🐻
Du bist grandios. Wir glauben an Dich. Du machst genau das Richtige. Vorreiter nicht Mitläufer. Danke, dass Du meinen Traum lebst 🙏💪🥹😉😁
Vielen dank das du deine Gedanken und Emotionen mit uns so offen und ehrlich Teilst. GO ON AND PUSH PUSH PUSH
Ahoi Boris, thank you for your straight and detailed analasys of the actual situation. Bearing in mind your past year's achievements no-one doubts your abilities as one of the best skippers worldwide. Thus no need to justify your decision for sailing a different route, I presume. You'll nail it, I'm sure and - may Neptune be with you!
Thanks Boris - it's so interesting to hear about your decision process. All the best - I hope you have another great race.
Hey Boris, you finished second on the way to New York, you have shown big improvements in ‘all round’ boat speed since the ocean race, you have a magic team, and your objective is the Vendée Globe. You have nothing to prove, enjoy the race. Would love to see Will Harris do a little weather analysis video and hear his take. Go Malizia Go !!
Watch this space....
You will make it, no worries, nobody can predict the weather, even these guys with the multibillion computing power, stay confident, stay strong, we believe in you
As I saw this my one and only thought was: - A bold move! -
BTW: Very professional offshore racing, very professional!
I was pleased to hear you describing the joy and beauty of being at sea outwith the actual race. I can understand why you have chosen this route which certainly makes the race very interesting. You have already proven how fast Malizia is and how you can hold your own with the best sailors in the world which will be a huge comfort for the fast approaching VendeeGlobe. Stay safe Boris and keep on enjoying the wonders of ocean sailing. 👍
Un dicton français dit : " La chance ne sourit qu'aux audacieux"
Malizia et Boris à sa barre en sont une belle illustration
On croise les doigts pour la suite 🤞🤞🤞
Vielen Dank für den interessanten Bericht von Bord der Malizia. Schön Sie so wohlbehalten zu sehen. 👍🏻
Ich drücke Ihnen ganz doll die Daumen 🙏😀 daß Sie das, was Sie sich wünschen, nämlich mit der Malizia schnellstmöglich am Ziel zu sein, erreichen. 🍀🥳😍⛵
Die Voraussetzungen und sind gut.🍀💯 Viel Glück bei Entscheidungen und Kraft gegen die Wellen.
Grüße aus dem Frankenland
Go Boris! A true sailor and sportsman 🥇
You are a true Seemann, and i learn from you to be a true seemann in my daily live. Thank you ❤
Go Hermannator! Thank you for the different strategy. You are in focus now and most people are with you. Have a lot af fun out there 😊
When i look at your last races with this boat, i can't wait for the Vendée Globe.
That's so nice so see honesty on the decision making, the risk you take and how you assume it !
No risk no fun. Danke danke für die Einblicke. Nun wird es tatsächlich richtig spannend. Weiß nicht ob ich die nächst Nacht schlafen kann. Du machst das Boris.❤
Hi, danke für die Erklärung. Wir fragen uns schon was macht er da? Will er wirklich da hoch? Dann wieder Na ja, wenn alles gut läuft ab morgen downwind. Der Umgang mit dem Ungewissen ist eine Fähigkeit, die man haben muss. Macht das ganze sehr interessant. Ich drücke die Daumen, dass das gut ausgeht. Beste Grüße
Wow Boris,
Du machst es spannend!
Wir drücken Dir die Daumen, dass Deine Entscheidung die richtige war. Dem Bauchgefühl zu folgen, kann eigentlich nie schaden.
Pass auf Dich auf, Martin
The victory belongs to the most tenacious. Großartige Entscheidung, egal was rauskommt!
Gut dass du auf deinen Instinkt hörst. Die Route ist definitiv spannend und nur wer wagt, kann auch gewinnen. Die Daumen sind gedrückt, dass du schnell auf die Nordseite des Hochs kommst und dann schön downwind ins Ziel segelst.
Dear Boris, thank you very much for the very open and transparent description of the reasons for choosing the northern course. The gut feeling, which also develops through many sailing experiences, should also be taken into account in your decisions. Among other things, you acted accordingly and now nothing stands in the way of a relaxed achievement of goals. I wish you, Boris, that you continue to gain valuable experience in this race for the real challenge from November. All the best and enjoy the race.
Danke für das Update. Das was du erklärst habe ich mir schon gedacht. Mit der Windvorhersage im Tracker schaut es ein wenig risikoreich aus. Viel Glück
Superprofessionell und supersympathisch! Alles Gute und viel Erfolg!
Sehr interessante Entscheidung und mutig von dir. Das wird noch spannend. Hoffentlich zahlt es sich am Ende aus! Wir drücken die Daumen.
Great tactical move Boris! It is nice to see a sailor dairing to do it's own way and not just follow/cover. Hope it will be a winning move! Go Boris!
Thank you for this, Boris. When I saw you make that turn I was totally impressed, and wanted to know what prompted it. SUCH fine racing.
#1 or broke. Cheering you on from Virginia, USA. Bummed that I didn't know & missed everyone in New York. Stay safe.
Thank you for your video and explanation. Regardless of the outcome you are right that one should appreciate the time at sea and realize how privileged it is to be part of such event.
Well done Boris these decisions have to be made right or wrong, but as long as you stick to a plan, it may well pay off. It makes for a very exciting race for us to track.
Thank you for your great informative videos. Chin up keep fighting . X jo
In the virtual race we have the same situation. The routing is indecisive. So now I am also heading north with the same reasoning. Good luck. Fair winds.
Das ist Racing! Ich finde es fantastisch, wie sich die Dinge entwickeln, spannend zu verfolgen, ob da noch ein passendes Windsystem aufploppt oder nicht usw. Wie im waren Leben sind zu bestimmten Zeitpunkten Entscheidungen zu treffen und dann gehts eben weiter. Ich freue mich schon unheimlich auf die Vendee Globe!!! Go Boris!!!
Well done Boris you are doing a great job and thank you for all these updates. I spent a lot of my life sailing but always from the cold wet cockpit, it must be lovely sailing the boat from your arm chair.
4:49 crossing fingers❤❤❤❤
Good luck and thanks. Glad you go by your instinct
>20 knots and that stable; amazing.
A really interesting move to watch it play out, good luck!
Vielen Dank für diese Update! Es zeigt so sehr die Leidenschaft und das Brennen für diesen Job. Danke, dass Du uns mit nimmst, welche Route Du auch nimmst ❣️⛵️💨⛵️💨⛵️
Take the risk, it's much more fun and exciting, and you'll never regret in the end trying something new. Enjoy the sea and solitude, and may the weather be ever in your favour!
Thanks, Boris, for bringing us with you on the sea and in your mind and sharing your enjoyment. You make it a better world.
We love your candidness! All the best! We push as well.
You have my full respect, Boris! Enjoy the ride as much as you can - seems you have your priorities in order. Good luck!
I like your decision! You'll be on the right lane! You only can gain, in the worst case it will be "only" experience. You do a great job. Thank you very much for your super interesting daily videos. Now the communication is great with your new link.
Thank you for that honest update and explanation.
If you don’t try, you will never know. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and emotions!
Push - push - push …
Last chance to test the boat in conditions like the Southern Ocean. Go Boris you are doing the right ;)
This is a super brave choice, Boris and I really hope it pays off for you and you can hook into those winds to the North - you'll be flying if you do!
Boris, weiter so! Mit dem Wind geht alles besser! Ich bin mir sicher, dass Deine Strategie aufgeht!
That's a real adventurer heart speaking. Very much appreciated. No risk no fun! Go Boris and thanks for sharing your life on board.
Keep going Boris. A good maneuver forward no matter what. Thank you and Bless
Ich bin sehr gespannt wohin die Route am Ende führt.
Respekt für die eigenständige Entscheidung. Drücke die Daumen und bin gespannt.
Viel Erfolg und Spaß!!
Hey Boris, Du bist so cool und mental so stark, absolut bewunderungswürdig. Mal ganz davon abgesehen, was für ein genialer Segler, Seemann und Mensch Du bist. Bleib stark und gesund und schnell - all the best for your race!!
Love that you are trying different. If you never try, you never know. Keep going!!
I wondered a lot about your sailing so straight north. Thanks for explaining and ride on being a Happy Sailor. 😄🤙🏼 It’s really exciting! 😍
This looks brilliant Boris.....Love your flier!!! Gd Winds ...its going to work....!!!
I believe your strategy is brilliant and will show huge gains by tomorrow evening. You have a large fleet of admirers following you.
Deine Routenwahl hört sich nach einer wohlfundierten Entscheidung und kalkuliertem Risiko an - Daumen sind und bleiben gedrückt! PS: Deine finale Deadline ist die schönste - nach solchen Deadlines richte ich mich auch häufig ;-)
Thanks for the information Boris. I hope the high pressure ends up working for you. Your a great team to follow.
J'espère que votre option sera payante... En tous cas, par ce choix vous rendez cette course encore plus captivante
Good luck! Take care of Malizia, we‘ll see you flying east! Stay safe ⛵️🌬💨💨
die Route erinnert mich stark an Bernard Moitessier, wie er abgebogen ist. off to greenland (-: auf die Intuition vertrauen ist das beste was man im Nordatlantik bei so viel Technik und Wettermodellen an board machen kann. & wir drücken dir alle die Daumen, a very lot of fair winds.
U are top 3 best Imoca 60 sailor in the world. Well done Boris!
A bold call for all or nothing, what a display of a truly competitive mind. Making the race so much more exciting to follow. Best of luck!
Hallo Boris, zu allererst drück ich dir die Daumen das dein Plan aufgeht. Den Tracker verfolge ich schon mehrere Tage und bin beeindruckt von deinem Mut so weit im Norden zu segeln, da vor Irland du ja noch den Sprung runter in die Biskaya machen musst. Push Push Boris möge dein Plan und Investition aufgehen. 🤙
Einfach großartig, wie offen und ehrlich Du berichtest. Herzlichen Dank dafür. Wir drücken weiter alle Daumen 💪👍😊
Boris , your videos are so great. so informative and maximum sharing of your views on your situation vs the fleet and the other competitors. This is so cool!. just Brilliant! Thank you.
Thank you very much!
Out of the box thinking, hope it works for Boris! Shorter distance and more consistent north westerlies to westerly winds, in the higher latitudes!
Herzlichen Dank für das Update! Wir drücken ganz fest die Daumen, so oder so ein tolles Rennen!!!
Viel Glück mit der Nordroute. Ich hoffe, die Taktik geht auf und das Wetter trägt seins bei. Mast und Schotbruch Boris und Team Malizia. 👍👍👍
Großartig das Du Deinem Instinkt folgst und Dir was traust ... wer weis, wie genau sich die Windmodelle letztendlich bewahrheiten ... wir drücken Dir die Daumen ... keep on racing ... good winds and save saiiling
A true Gentleman, also in the way of reasoning and thinking.
Hi Boris. Thanks for your great videos. I really enjoy them. Keep it up and stay safe. Phil
Great update!! No Risk, No Reward!! You are in a great position, weather looks to favor your route. Confidence!!
Thanks for your support!
we now need another "Weather with Will" video on this channel - please!
What a good idea. Yes, please 😅
Watch this space....
Yes! We do!
You can only play the cards you are dealt Boris. I think you made the right choice. I hope it works out. Thanks for the update. Stay safe.
Hi Boris, thank you very much for your detailed explanations on route planning. It's great that you're staying relaxed despite your good position in the race and are prepared to take risks when planning your route. I wish you every success with this.
Ich sehe Dich schon auf Halbwindkurs Richtung Frankreich brettern! Chapeau!
Danke für die Erklärung und good luck Boris🍀🌬️⛵️🍀
ich drücken dir die Daumen, dass dein Plan aufgeht!
I admire your clarity and joy in what you do. Sailing is not something I do, the sea is a huge mystery, however I see your experience very similar to life journey we each experience, sometimes good conditions, sometimes bad, making decisions based on our experience and trusting our instinct, all while trying to keep focus on why we are here, in this moment, how did we get here and why, all while creating meaningful relationships and being inspired by the beauty of the Sun on the water. I'm currently listening to the biography of Alexander Von Humboldt called "The Invention of Nature", amazing explorer & scientist who presented the world with the concept of the interconnection of Nature, the poetic and essential existance of Nature, he connected Nature with politics, culture and society. An awesome listening experience for your journey.
Greetings from Mexico to you and your team.
Celia Pigueron, fellow conservationist & Malizia follower😢
I checked your route with my own weather tools. It looks like the best option. I hope you will win it. Good luck ⛵️⛵️⛵️⛵️
I think Boris is going for the North West Passage.
Its way more exciting this way. good luck
I can certainly see your logic in your route of north of the high pressure and with Charlie in front of you in order to win you are spot on.great racers follow their own gut not someone else's. successful or not it shows you've got what it takes to do really well in the Vendee.
Huge admiration for your willingness to take this risk! Bon courage!
Because "Gentlemen Never Sail to Weather".
Go Big!
Then sail home!
Well at the very least you have made this a more interesting race to follow … especially the next 48hrs 😊👍
Nice to see this, I thought you'd gone nuts. When actually you have quite a good plan! 😂😊🎉
Ich finde deine Entscheidung auch super. Hoffentlich passt alles: Wind und Strömung
Im live ticker sieht es perfekt aus
Viel Glück
Thanks for all the insights!! Follow your insticts..
Go for it, Boris! We're here for you so take the risks and see them play out. ;D
