Great commentary by Olly!. Calm, knowledgeable and with a little bit of teenage diffidence. Very cool. Couldn't agree more about getting kids involved.
Fantastic video-- was comparing the comfort and speed of your trip vs Florence (a 37" mono-- I really admire the Florence crew, but I would much rather be on your boat). Also congrats on you guys as parents! Your boys are getting such amazing life experiences --maybe its the kiwi in us....?
It would have been good to have a chat with the Florence guys. We saw them arrive in Horta a couple of days before we left but we didn't get a chance to say hi. I think they left from Bahamas(?) and we left from further south in St Martin. Our ride was definitely more comfortable without doubt 😉 It was a fun trip
There's a bit of luck involved with that 😅 You gotta know what you are looking for too bc not all carbon rigs are gonna be grunty enough for your boat - especially if you're a catamaran. Europe is a good place to be because of the racing scene but there are no guarantees. Good luck with your search 🍀
Winning at home schooling is an understatement, your boys will be able to do whatever they want to do. Kudos to you 👏
loved the shot looking along the canted hulls parting the water

"onimous" clouds! Yep! Thanks Olly. Got to remember that one. Nice filming. I love the stern shots showing the water rushing away.
Thanks! ( From Olly)
I'm that guy too - standing on the scoop looking at the rudders without a harness. Just holding on and confident that you won't go for a swim.
Lol! He got in trouble for that 😅 He's not setting a good example is he? 🙄🤪
Looks like a lovely sail across guys, lovely
It was fun 😊
Harry could have his own channel. I loved it!
Harry says hi!!!
Stay safe out there! Looks pretty full on! You could not hang off the back as she screams through high seas lol. Scared me! Man your kids are tough.
Kids told him off 🤣🤣
Hi guys. Could you please guide me on where can I look for a second hand carbon mast? Thanks !!

Do you guys have your rudders set up with toe in ? Toe out or parallel ?
Rudders are in parallel
Fast.
