Been there, done that. Not racing, but cruising a Chatham 33, steel, pilothouse, cutter from Saldana, South Africa to Tonga in the South Pacific as part of a high latitude, north and south, singlehanded circumnavigation. Later during the circumnavigation, I returned to the Southern Ocean again and sailed from San Diego to the Falklands via Cape Horn. It's wild down there. A life experience not to be missed.

Seeing these big boats surfing gives me the goosebumps.

Especially when you consider they are probably doing over 30 knots in a keel boat awesome. 👍

A race that is adventure, a race that captures the imagination and all of human emotion. I can not wait for this race!

“Below 50 degrees south latitude there is no rest. Below 40 degrees south latitude there is no peace. Below 30 degrees south latitude there is no God.” Quotation from unknown participant of Whitbread, in the book, Unforgiving Ocean.

Like sailing in some kinda ocean only planet in a far off galaxies that's what I think the moment I watch this video . 2017 Southern Ocean Volvo Sailing prompts me to start searching in KZbin . You guys must have the nerve and balls of steel to accept the challenge . Me ? I'm no sailor . I'd rather be on the safety of the Terra Forma . Good luck fellas !

Scale up an unreasonably overpowered Aussie skiff, but with the movable center of effort made possible by the recent (in my lifetime) advances in material technology, and you get clipper-beating 24-hour runs. With fewer crew. And, ceteris paribus, much lighter boats.(Granted, many of the current crop of crew are apparently overfed. Hey, it's their lifetime. (That whole 12-m thang.)) But crew sail boats. 'Nuff said. No possible crewmember today is a veteran of the American Civil War, the war we all fought here to end the enslavement of Africans in the cotton industry (and to a much, much smaller extent, the production of mixed agriculture in uneven terrain.) So, to a degree, the longer the race (think circumnavigation), the more important is equity with crew from prize-winners. No duh. Can you say "Captain Cook"? "Leif Erickson?" "Amundsen?" I think you can.

This is proof the maori lied about sailing to antartica. Even in modern time it is very difficult and nearly impossible. Without proper clothing and small canoes can't go there.
@zoepaulastrassfield26642 жыл бұрын
I don’t think the legend in question actually mentioned that that navigator had been to Antarctica itself, IIRC he described seeing icebergs/sea ice, which seems very possible at the latitude of the southernmost islands where Māori artifacts have been discovered like the Auckland Islands.
