Thanks, Sailing Ontology - and to the others who have commented. All feedback much appreciated. I am in awe of what these guys (and increasingly girls too) do in 'man-in-the-street' boats, and the cameraderie they have against an unforgiving ocean. Funny you should mention Trevor - I have his footage for the next one. Alas, it's in SD format, so not as sharp as I would like, but it gives a quick view of the interior of the boat. Thanks for the motivation to get back to the editing suite...! :)
Wow! Excellent command of senses and handling the problem. Worst we have in danger in Georgia, USA is female Koreans in Lexus SUV! Thank You for sharing the adventure! Your a true man's man of adventure of the sea!
Thanks Nat - don't check this channel as much as I should. Appeciate your comments. The wind generator is I believe a Forgen. They don't put out a lot of power, but are ideal as a trickle charger as they are totally silent, very light, and take up very little room. You'll often see them on mastheads where they catch the best breeze, but also on pushpits, as they are unlikely to do any serious harm to clumsy hands.There are some domestic versions out there for off-grid cabins, RV's etc, and they are often for sale at boat jumbles. I picked a second-hand one up for abut £130 on ebay. Cheers. Jake
exceptional video-document. Thanks for sharing. It should be interesting to know if a more conservative kind of boat (then the coco) could have been more protected in that particular situation when dismasting happened.

I think Andy is my hero! What a nice, laid back chap. Nicely put together film showing real sailing, now I just need to find the time to enter myself!
This guy is such good value.
Well done and very informative, as usual. Keep up the good work.
This is absolutely terrifying! Kudos to all those taking part.

Andy, thanks for your help during JAC 2016, hope to do transquadra with my Lord !!

Pleasant fellow
lovely interview. what was that small vertical axis wind generator seen @4:11?
Hi Jake! I really enjoy your jester series! How about an interview with Trevor Leek?
Excellent Andy, Thats it. . . making my Hurley unsinkable or "Rogerizing" her
what little recognition you jester challengers get! when in fact you do represent the ultimate in seamanship!
Why did you not use flares ?
