    7:36 - you look like a drug dealer crossing the channel on a power boat !! 😂😂
    Now seriously, I have been watching your videos for so long now that I could almost say that you have inspired me to buy an old sailboat, restore it and now I am sailing as well.
    Thanks for the great Stories and inspiration for going above and beyond !
    Regards from Germany

    This is why the route via Cape Verde is more pleasant - the average wind is higher the closer you get to 10°N. I went as far as 11°50" on my crossing. Though I wasn't racing. I'd still rather more distance but more wind.

    Como sois los regatistas oceánicos Hugo, con 4 nudos de viento avanzar a 3 nudos y te quejas... ya casi no recuerdas tu velerito bicolor del Caribe... 😜 Ya me gustaría que mi barco fuese capaz de navegar a esas velocidades. Enhorabuena por el vídeo

    Salut Hugo, il faut de tout pour faire un monde, des pétoles comme du bon vent et même parfois du vent très fort. Il faut profiter du moment présent, comme tu le fais et surtout garder le moral, c'est tout de même pas mal de pouvoir surfer sur les vagues au milieu de l'Atlantique et ensuite de pouvoir bronzer au soleil en attendant le vent. Merci pour ces superbes images et de nous faire vivre ta mini. Marc

    Ahhhh Hugo, you’re killing me, James Kell just sent me an invite to go sailing with “the Sailing Frenchman,” this summer off Brittany, oh man that would be soooooo much fun, hope you get lots of young customers! I’m too old for you kids but it sounds like an absolute blast, cheers!

    @brucebrown9604 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I followed you during the whole race and it was clear that something was amiss in this 2nd leg. Since you were with a group of boats, I figured you were ok, but something with your route wasn’t playing out. Thanks for shedding light on your race, that’s really interesting for all of us following your channel! Looking forward to the next episodes 😎

    Why do you want the weight up forward when speeds are slow?

    • @TheSailingFrenchman
      @TheSailingFrenchman  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To reduce drag by making the hull as horizontal as possible

    Thanks for the vídeo. I don’t know if you have it already, but I’d like to see better how the weather forecast is received and plot on that “white chart”. Also what does it mean “it’s a race without assistance”, what electronic devices you have on board to communicate and locate yourself. Thanks a lot.

    Not sure if you are comfortable to talk about it, but I would be interested to know how all of this works with finances. Do you get paid or only if you are one of the first to arrive or win or how do you finance your life? Thank you very much for your videos.
