#GGR2022 final Q&A by Don 10/07/2023

[@jonathanlewis1352]

We miss you Don. Our daily morning coffee isn’t the same without your briefings. A sincere thank you to all.

[@paulshell1729]

We've missed you Don, the excellence of your team in communicating between us and them is just right. I wouldn't change a thing. I'm glad that people are getting into the concept of the GGR, it is so compelling. Thanks for keeping it about the people, the boats, and the adventures along the way...

[@carlsails58]

Love the MGR shirt Don! Thanks for this! Best wishes with OGR! Will be following!

[@sephina]

Where is the link to the English prize giving you mentioned?

[@CheersWarren]

I must check out the prize giving replays . The live was sadly so bad because of internet.

[@SimonaBava]

You are back!

[@fredrikmossberg865]

Will you give a filmed boattour from Jeremy and Oleanna now after the finish?

[@stevelawrie9115]

Yeah, it would be nice to just keep the film drops. It's supposed to be a solo event and I think the entrants would feel invaded.

I really enjoyed sailing around the world sitting at my kitchen table in sunny California. Thanks Don and i will be looking forward to keeping up with the upcoming 2026 race and events. Cheers too all!

[@jtlissner3062]

Was such a fantastic race Don, thanks to you, the team and the participants that made it so fantastic to watch. Hope there are a couple of wrap up episodes with some post race analysis or at least a high level wrap-up to give us all something between now and the OGR in September. Cheers.

Hi Don: Like many, I followed the GGR in both 2018 and 2022 closely, daily, even several times per day. I almost felt as if I was sailing the race along with the entrants! The coverage was wonderful and I wouldn't change the way it was presented at all. I do have a question I posed to you once before, I would like to purchase a copy of the documentary on the 2018 race. However Vimeo is not supporting Apple TV any longer and the complications of casting from your phone to the TV is a bit of an irritation. Hoping the film will be available to stream and purchase from another service very soon, perhaps KZbin or otherwise? Thank you!

Did you ever find out the fate of puffin ?

[@kathleenjohnson2946]

Curious also.

[@goodq]

We missed you Don ❤. Thank you for everything. Such a wonderful experience following this GGR journey

[@bruceabrahams4066]

I enjoyed the presentation throughout the race. Somedays all of it and Somedays just checking in. Todays drogue ideas may save my life one day. After you make a comment I can be reasonably comfortable with how I apply that knowledge.

[@kapow1324]

Great coverage and enjoyed greatly. A worthwhile improvement would be to ensure that the audio is working on the film drops. It was frustrating to finally see a long awaited return of a favourite sailor, only to find no or interrupted audio. Looking forward to the next GGR

[@drdecco1]

Congrats, great work, excellent job! Did all the “for sale” GGR boats get sold?

[@petreamccarthy8635]

Thanks for the whole thing Don. Looking forward to the OGR :)

[@rickowens4397]

The Master-of Ceremonies' at the prize giving event was top-notch.

[@Kit2Canada]

Thanks Don, remarkable work!

[@CheersWarren]

Re merchandise I totally understand the difficulty of shipping. ( I ship some eBay sales takes forever!) Did you consider using one of the services that sailing you tubes use line Tee spring? They ship from country of order with digital image transfers etc. they are set up for it you pick the products , quality etc cheers Warren

[@braithmiller]

Kindly missing you all. Great heads up on Aida's edit, 90% over my head in French it went.

[@CheersWarren]

Vane Sail great! Get the center of effort forward , better than a staysail that is too close to the center of a boat. Cheers Warren

[@suewalsh3976]

Going to miss you all

[@kathleenjohnson2946]

Good to see you!

[@lindarothchild6930]

Hello Don, Whatever happened to the entire race video. I paid VIMEO $15.88 and it has been charged to my account as of May 2023. When I saw that charge I thought Oh good the video will be here soon but I never received it. Have the videos been shipped? I sent an inquiry to VIMEO and am waiting for their reply. Thanks, Linda Rothchild

[@mauroceresa1219]

I got it. Paid to have it and it is on my Vimeo account. I think you had a problem with Vimeo, they are the one getting money and distributing the video.

[@lindarothchild6930]

@@mauroceresa1219 Is it still available?

[@SimonaBava]

Wait a minute: M G R on your shirt?

[@erdeneruc3103]

Manager of GGR ;)

[@mauroceresa1219]

Sure this is Mini Globe Race, together with GGR and OGR are the three Don babies.
