- The moment Tapio Lehtinen was reported safe to GGR race control by fellow entrant Kirsten Neuschäfer.
Tapio's boat 'Asteria' sank yesterday in the southern Indian Ocean, some 450 miles south east of Port Elizabeth, South Africa. His beloved Gaia 36 sank in 5 minutes with a strong unidentified water intake from astern.
After successfully rescuing Tapio this morning after 24 hours adrift in a life raft, Kirsten shared a glass of rum before he was transferred aboard the bulk carrier DARYA GAYATRI.

No matter how this race turns out, Kirsten Neuschafer has already won in my book!!! She let it all hang out and made that boat fly!!! Hat's off to all involved, but especially Kirsten!! Well Done!
Absolutely 👌
Great team work. Let's thank them:
- GGR crisis team
- South Africa MRCC
- Abilash willing to join in
- and the final rescuers Kirsten
- and the DARYA GAYATRI crew.
Tapio’s last salute to Asteria sounded so sad.
What an unbelievably powerful and moving clip... Many won't grasp how modern technology has allowed us to share this, kirsten is literally still out of breath from the effort and adrenaline of what she did, bravo Kirsten.... Go and show us all how to be a true seaman. (sea lady)
Bravo Zulu Kirsten you epitomize the spirit of the sea and have done yourself your country and the sailing community proud
Salute Kirsten! A role model to ALL women and not just sailing women!
Hats off to all, but especially Kirsten, well done Kirsten, may fair winds take you home safely and quickly you are a hero!
Kristen you are an amazing lady and no matter where in the race you finish we all have huge amounts of admiration for you and your the GGR winner in our eyes
Kirsten is a legend glad everyone is safe think Skip Novak is still watching over her
Amazing and very inspiring job Kirsten! No matters what it happens with the race now. You virtually are the winner of this race.
Good job all, kudos to Kristen and Tapio. Tapio was keeping excellent communication during disaster 👏
Kristen you are a LEGEND!!! Thanks for Tapio's rescue. Best whishes to you and keep sailing as you know. Good winds for you.🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Kirsten too young to be a legend ... She talled .. she made it. Daily sailor's duty
@@laurentbrochard6949 Ok for me is a legend now, and yes is too young for made several routes to Antartic ocean as "Pelagic" skipper for naming you part of her work. For you will be when you consider.
Well done kirsten and everyone else involved

Well that was boring…… NOT. Kirsten, Ahbelish, and the freighter crew are my heroes!
Interesting adventure, but a shame Tapio didn't complete the race. Is there any update what caused the boat to sink
When are ya'll gonna get the store open so we can get a copy of that sweet RKJ photo???
what we all want to know is...what possibly
caused this ?
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Bravo Zulu
I was intrigued, Bravo Zulu? Google helped me out here, "Well Done" with regard actions, operations or performance. I like that, I'll be using it ...
Is rescuing allowed?? Or is she now Tichester?? ( spelling)
Rescue runs are part of the race. She will still be in the race and will be awarded credit in hours/days to compensate for the time she spent for the task. I don't know if it's calculated before or after finish.
@@firo172 ok that’s cool!! I like that rule. Do you think Tapios boat broke in half?
@@sucapizda no its not reported to have. They'd be quite difficult boats to split in half in general due to the design. But the sounds of it it went down stern first very quickly. The bows are very reinforced but not really expected to have collisions or issues at the stern. Seems they don't know why it went down yet. Tapio woke up to it taking on water fast and only had 5 minutes to get into survival suit and out into the raft and watched it go down. They arent that long either so you don't get the buv pressure differences that can cause to split just due to the fact its sinking
A bit deaf that guy.
Bravo!..a happy outcome to a sad end to his race…Viva! Kirsten!!
