  These boats are mind blowing and this race is equally as mind blowing. 32 meter tri's cruising at 30 to 40 knots and going over 50 is insane and single handing non stop race around the world is truly the pinnacle of sailing. Can't wait to see this happen

  It’s beyond comprehension, how a solo sailor maneuvers a vessel moving with such speed, face the challenges posed by the elements and yet eat, sleep and function for that many days, alone!!

  Took us 9 months to get from Canada to Australia on an old 1956 Gaffer :-) No electronics, no cockpit, no roller furller and sporting a wooly jumper!!

  I was born into sailboat racing and I can't even imagine putting up the sails on a 32m boat solo.  The power is just wild, and to handle that it in the Southern Ocean is mind blowing.  Good luck and safe trip to all!

  Absolutely beautiful things, those sailboats. More like planes with sales than anything else.

  Excellent coverage, really appreciate getting to details like crash padding, daggerboard control, and the food. Always interesting to see what delicious treats get packed on various boats (-8

  Absolutely crazy to singlehand these very odd looking yachts in the most isolated oceans of the world, no doubt expecting people to risk their lives to come to the rescue when the proverbial hits the fan.
