It’s very refreshing to actually see a professional sailor on KZbin. Sailing Antarctica and Tierra del Fuego would be a magnificent adventure. Perhaps the equivalent of climbing Everest. Fair winds and Godspeed.

Amazing sailing concept. Captain Novak is brilliant. My favorite sailboat walkthrough... A quantum leap ahead of everyone else.

The best ever captain skip , what I like about him when ever he talks he just trying being as informative as possible and giving you the explanation you wish to hear !!

Having done a couple of trips to/from Antarctica (ANARE) I have to say that those two boats are some of the nicest and most versatile I've seen yet. Great video and thanks for the tour - really appreciated.

This guy I love so prepared.I’m only getting into sailing I’m a fitter welder thinking of building a yacht and want it strong. I like the simplicity to .Technology doesn’t makeup for lack of ability .My flight instructor told me that.great videos. I do a lot of hunting in Nz when I can.But live in Australia.But when we fly in for a week hunting got to think a head.

That's an Aerorig. It's a freestanding mast with the jib and main boom all on one long boom and the whole thing swivels. Very easy to handle and perfectly balanced and you can swing the jib way out down wind in lieu of a spinnaker.
