    I love his answer when you asked what edge he has to win the race, and he said what makes you think I have an edge. Lol.

    Certainly an interesting and experienced offshore sailor. I found it very clever that he added an external rudder for his Aries windvane. Rules require a long keeled boat with keel attached rudder where modern designs have separate rudders farther aft. The main rudder could balance the boat and the aft one be used by vane or hand to actually steer the boat. If the aft rudder is a balanced design, it would greatly reduce the effort needed by the vane or sailor.

    Good thorough interview Katy. So will see him head off to Australia his own way now.

    I’m surprised that he didn’t stock up on Vegemite or the like for the race.
    One of the most lovable Aussie characters.

    I wonder if he knows all those talking books can fit in an SD chip the size of a small button and played on a machine the size of a deck of cards, and powered by a small LiPo battery the size of a stick of gum, charged by one of his solar panels the size of hatch cover. The GGR rules may be working here if I recall only electronics that existed at the time of the first GG can be used on board, I don't know ....but so AMAZING to compare the changes in gear from that era to today's sailing and boat gear- GPS and navionics mapping, AIS, iridium coms, NMEA, etc. The only thing that hasn't changed is the sea. "The sea will always be the sea". I'm guessing that Kipling said something along those lines.

      It's a historical race and technology is limited to that of the time.

    For less than the price of a sextant he could get a handheld GPS. Just saying…

    Having sailed my share of miles in the past 35 years, sold my boat, unable to afford the lifestyle, I always find it a little discomforting when I see these guys and the total disarray they entertain aboard and below decks on what is ostensibly a beautiful piece of boat, I mean it's not like a spur of the moment decision to sail round the world, you had 4 years to find a place for everything in all the lockers and cubbyholes, yet 3 days prior to start, it's an equipment and stores salad. Find the sailor who has it all "squared away" and my money is on that boat. If squared away is a sailing term, there must be a reason.
