Thank you! Currently watching the GGR and appreciate you daily updates. My father in law built a 50ft ketch, ferro cement boat. He was never able to sail it, think the building of it kept him young to 93 yrs old. But it was sold and sailed around Vancouver Island for 20 yrs. Certainly nothing like "an adventure" but understand the spirit of adventure living with my husband. Thank you for sponsoring the GGR.
MY firs t boat build at 18 was a ferro replica of SUHAILI but never finished :) so sounds like you have had some fun in the family....glad you are enjoying the GGR and thanks for the kind words ..Don
Wow Don its no wonder you are where you are today after watching that video….your such a character and miles ahead of your time back then. Cheers to you and McIntyere Adventure and of course the GGR!
brilliant ! my wife and i bought an old timber 50ft ketch 6mths ago. we don't fancy doing the BOC but sailing is an amazing adventure. well done Mr. and Mrs. Macintyre your an inspiration
I can't believe this has only had 7602 views is I thought it has been one of the best sailing documentaries I have never watched, as for Don and Margie I think you are both absolute legends
+Tobots Wholesale HI...the varying answers are probably because there is no simple answer :) as both types are OK if you know what you are doing and have experience?...but the one thing I would say is if you look at the www.GoldenGlobeRace.com web site you will see that the type of boat we have chosen for this race ..non stop,,solo around the world we strongly believe them to be safe, simple and inexpensive...they are full keel...it does come down to a solid hull, strong rig, bullet proof steering and secure hatches to keep the water out...after that you just have to enjoy the ride....all the best of luck!!...and thanks for your kind comments.. :)
I was thinking the same thing. I really enjoyed the documentary & Dons story. I wanna know if he was ever able to sail again with Margie. Amazing how the sailing world has come so far this video was made yet, still so much is the same. There really are some things that will never change. Definitely a legend.
I am watching this on a sleepless night. No words can convey what I feel, from your experience, based on your descriptions of your journey. "Unreal" you said a few times. Job well done! Thanks to your fine narration, and honest emotion, maybe a few people will feel how difficult it really is, to sail this Earth.. . . Alone. Joshua Slocum. Robin Lee Graham. And, McIntyre.. . . .
I had to come back and watch this again after watching True Spirit, which Don had bankrolled Jessica. I remember following this race and still have Don's VHS tape when it first came out, which has always held a big part of my taking life a little differently. Thank you Don! Favorite quote - "The BOC is a bucket of fun, I tell ya"
It just goes to show what sets some part form the masses... strength of character, determination and dedication. Well done on you for having achieved your dream.
Yes you are right about dreams...and always good to keep dreaming...there are some great stories coming form the Golden Globe Race with real people..so hope you can follow that ..all the best...Don :)
This is the third time I have watched this. The first time, was an accidental browse 2 years ago. I fell in love with wanting to sail immediately. I know have been reading. watching, and boat touring ect/ and just hoping for that Publishers clearing house van to pull up, ha ha . Love this story so much.
Hey thanks....:) that was some time ago..lol....next trip is racing my 19ft TREKKA www.ClassGlobe580.com solo across the Atlatic next year :)..all the best......
@@mcintyreadventure Likewise. I bought the video on VHS some 25 years ago. Sadly, the VHS player has long since gone to landfill so great to be able to watch Don and Margie's BOC quest here on TH-cam. Great work. Also enjoyed watching your year in Antarctica!
@@donmcintyre6037 I don't expect you to remember Don, but I interviewed you on ABC RADIO North West all those years ago. You are an absolute legend mate. You have some extraordinary achievements too look back on when you do decide to relax in front of the fireplace! Cheers and thanks again for you exploits and continuing involvement with sailing.
@@paulas7847 Hi Paul...cool to reconnect and yes they were great times so thanks for your comments...life continues with the GGR and Ocean Globe and then the big one..the MINI GLOBE RACE...:) all fun and all the very best..Don
The old BOC Challenge was one race that made me first dream to sail around the world alone. That was one race that would give someone a half decent chance to participate in.
I am sick with a cold and Martie is out of town helping a friend with her back surgery recovery. Good time to watch again. You did really well on that first leg. Did you say this was your first passage? This was thirty years ago! Unbelievable! Time flies. Life, eh!?!
Hope you get better...yes it was...I had sailed the boat only 135 miles before setting out from Aust. to TONGA as my 2000 mile qualifying voyage..then got off to go back to find sponsors while Tim and friends sailed the boat to newport start...I then got on the day of the start and set sail...so was my first big leg in the boat...did not know where to go first two days so just followed JOSH! :)
Congratulations Don. A few years late, but just as heartfelt, mate! That part in the Southern Ocean where you had been awake for 3 days, was at a dead low etc, I had just made myself a brew and couldn't help but wish I could've sent a nice hot one back thru time for you. Excellent stuff from you and your team. Amazing and fantastic support from Margie too Well done all and immense thanks for letting us share in some of your experiences here.
Hey thanks for the cuppa!!...sitting in Papeete at the moment on my new Lagoon 450 EXPLORER..seems a long way from Southern Ocean but that was a good time I look back on with fond memories...thanks for your comments...all the best..Don
What a beautiful video ,the sea ,the skies ,the race and of cause Don, he has that drive that set some men apart. And all this with basic 1980's media tech ,good inobstrutive musio too.(rare) The equator crossing is hilarious
What a amazing video and such a nice bloke and Maggie was brilliant in all her support, I spent most of my life at sea first in the Royal Navy then as a deep sea trawlerman I can’t imagine what it was like being on your own in the south ocean
wow totally inspiring, and scary at the same time . You have balls of steal, the southern ocean looked terrifying. And to do first two legs with no sponsor that's even more crazy . So glad it worked out well and thanks for sharing the awesome footage.
Thanks Rich...it was fun and plan to do it again in the 2022 Golden Globe Race...and yes it was scary too...but life is for living...all the best there...:)
I bought this video back in 2001 when i started building my 36ft Wharram Tangaroa mark11 have watched it countless times to ma point where i cant play it anymore. Dons Adventure inspired me to build the boat i am now 66 the boat has long gone but the memories of that period in time still clearly remain and the piece of music that is played when don mentions "trade wind sailing at its best" is firmly stuck in my brain ,i have looked for many years to find the full version of that sound track but to no avail maybe one day i will find it anyway thanks Don for the memories and all the best in your next adventure.
HEY sounds like you have some cool adventures aeah..sfe sailing and enjoy the challenges and serenity!..I spent some time with James Wharram last December..we are building a few Tahiti Wafarers for the Royal Nomuka Yacht Club Next year..you can follow that on www.McIntyreAdventure.com all the best and thanks for letting me know! ..Don
Most of them are ignorant. Not stupid, but ignorant. If it is not on mainstream media or out of la la land (hollywood) they don't get it! Sad for humanity!
Thank you for sharing your 1st leg with us in video - just saw you arrived Cape Town, though it was 25 years ago, I admired your courage. I read most of the books of BOC single handed sailing, it was amazing; and I remember (forgot his name, may be Mitchell, he's about 63) and lost at sea around cape horn. I was in merchant navy 44 yrs ago, and one trip that we had a violent gale following us 16 out of 18 days from Vancouver to Tokyo, Japan. Our skipper chose great circle sailing above 45 degrees instead of a safer route. We lost our radio antennae, and someone needed to restring it on top of the aft mast that located at the rear deck about 5 - 6 stories height. It was gale force or stronger, no one wanted to go up....... well, i was young back then.... sure i climbed and successfully put the rope through the shackle with both hands, and using both my legs clung to the money bars - obviously no safety harness... not because I didn't want it, as it would be best without it in order to achieve the aim lot quicker.... stupid, right.
Yes Harry was a good friend..a sad story yet an inspiration too..gald you enjoyed this...the next thing to watch will be the www.GoldenGlobeRace.com in two years..that is an amazing adventure...all the best..Don
Hi yes..see www.McIntyreAdvneture.com for my Bounty Challenge..and curently have a lagoon 450 cat..but now also building a new Mini 5.80 see.. www.ClassGlobe580.com to race solo across the Atlantic in NOV 2021 :) ..all fun fo sure..thanks and all the ebst...Don
John whacked a growler at 62° South…..go Bertie !! RSA had two great competitors it seemed John would take the safety route but sadly that was not the outcome and the boat sank
Great video Don. The GGR is now on and they will soon be down there. I see that the boat is for sale in Noumea....... ten and a half ft draft !!!! Can't get into Pittwater I think.
The reason there are so few likes is that it is almost impossible to go through the sign in process that is attached to this site, and it is one of the best sailing videos I have ever seen and so it is very sad that the like statistics must be totally wrong ... it took me a half an hour, and having to redo my password, go through three or four different codes being sent, and so on just to get to be able to subscribe to this channel and to click the like button.

Hi Dave.....I certainly did wear it a lot of the time and every time I perceived a real risk obviously but often I did not wear it .in fact very often...I knew my boat and I stay low when walking around etc...when I was washed over the side once I was clipped on...so all I can say is I manage risk very seriously but do not wear a harned just cause I am on deck...I put it on when I know there is an issue..
