And the first man to circumnavigate the globe alone (not non-stop) was Joshua Slocum in June 27th, 1898, having traveled 46,000 over his 3 year voyage.

[@mcintyreadventure]

everything is possible..keep the dream alive...good luck!

[@michaelexman5474]

That is amazing.

[@columkenn]

Any plans to include a fin keel class of same length and vintage yachts in future editions? It would increase the number of sailors who already have a fin keel pre-1988 boat

[@donmcintyre6037]

Hi...the GGR is really set up for one type of boat but you could consider the SOLO Global Challenge..another event they allow anyone :) good luck

[@clintdavis4813]

You are one good sailor ! Will follow

[@informationgoldengloberace6061]

Thanks Clint....it is all on face book and www.GoldenGlobeRace.com

Computers, although in their infancy, did exist in the late 60's... The space race, along with Niel Armstrong's moon landing could not of been possible without computers...

It is about equipment available to sailors at the time.

[@bobfisher6429]

I can only make excuses. Would love to do it but my work schedule goes past the starting date! Otherwise, in a heartbeat.

[@mcintyreadventure]

How do you solo sailing with an auto-pilot or some sort?

[@mcintyreadventure]

[@JoseBarbosa-gv2mr]

You should have a 24 hour satellite stream

[@mcintyreadventure]

In those days the equipment wad the size of a large washing machine, cost about $100,000 and airtime was rediculious expensive :)

[@svcashflow630]
