Great interview with alan. He comes across really well and super interesting how much he changed on hugo boss and why. I would love to have an evening with him talking about the philosophy of these boats!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="153">2:33</a> Conrad was such a good host/ correspondent in the Volvo Ocean Race coverage back in the day. Nice to see him again!

[@caroletherton4236]

Thank you for this in depth analysis of Alan’s boat, I wondered why all black inside given the length of the confinement during dark nights, I guess its awesome style; if a repair was very difficult is any guidance by your shore team allowed … I know , non stop, without assistance .

[@PlanetSailOnline]

It's mainly about weight saving......painting the interior adds kg which could be used elsewhere to benefit the structure

[@stickshifter8]

Excellent vid!

[@wally07]

Amazing coverage. Thank you 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 🇳🇿

Notice the yellow helmet hanging next to him. What a wild ride. Carnivore menu Baby! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[@Seafariireland]

Super fun sailing!

[@NotAnAdventurer]

[@JuttaGajda]

Thank you very much for the very interesting week 3 Review with the impressive pictures. I wish all sailors and their boats just the best. 😊✊️🤞❤💪 Excuse my English please, I am German 🫢😟

[@PlanetSailOnline]

Good to have you aboard!

[@simonpuxley7374]

Thank you Matt! 700nm in 24hrs next!

[@IANRPARKER]

With a 35 knot or more wind speed over the deck I’m wondering if the foiling boats may find ice buildup cramping their style as they get further south.

What's the intro music from <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="11">0:11</a>?

@@TomSnyder--theJaz Thanks, wish it was longer! I wonder what the business angle is of releasing short tracks like this.

[@leesweet9]

Great summaries! When they give you mono-one channel audio, can you click and duplicate it to the other channel? One channel is useless for headphone wearers. 🤣

[@AndyR-ml3qf]

Nach jedem Tief kommt ein Hoch... wünsche dir bessere Tage be inspired...good luck

[@ImpossibleSolution-k6w]

What happens to these kind of boats at end of life? Can anything be recycled or do they just end up dismantled in landfill?

[@PlanetSailOnline]

Since the race started in 1989 and to the best of our knowledge none of the boats has been scrapped although a few have been lost at sea - IMOCA's or Open 60s as they used to be called are a good example of how grand prix boats can be pretty sustainable

[@Carsten-Berlin-Wi]

Beautiful... although a bit melancholic...

[@maca5645]

"Cup of tea" What is the world coming to...

[@snorttroll4379]

what breaks on a boat like this?

[@ats-3693]

574nm in 24hrs = an average of 44k/h or 27m/h...

[@MBCGRS]

615 nm now..! 47 kph

[@ats-3693]

@MBCGRS Crazy speed on a yacht and scary when soloing, even wearing a safety tether if you fell overboard at 47kph you'd have your work cut out pulling yourself back up the tether against a 47kph water flow. Actually I wonder if they don't wear a remote control device that they can activate to winch the tether line in if they find themselves being towed behind the yacht?

[@MBCGRS]

@ats-3693 It is certainly on the thin edge... But I believe most of the foiling yaughts are covered cabins. Sailing completely from below decks.

[@lastpenny849]

@@ats-3693 You are only getting up if you can waterski. No chance at 5 kts let alone 25.

[@johnmayer3433]

@@ats-3693 It seems to me that you have not the slightest idea of water flow, even in just 6 or 7 kph (or better 3 to 4 knots since we are sailing) it would be impossible to pull against. Falling off the boat at a speed of 20 kts means certain death.

The commercials were more entertaining. By bloke.

[@TerryHollis37]

Why is the music so loud, I can't hear the talking ???

[@TerryHollis37]

Sorry about that, it was another KZbin session that started without me realising it.
