I’m so happy to have all of the old Whitbread docs online to watch, I’ve writing a story set in the early Whitbread days and these are so great to have for research!

thank you so much for this footage . As a boatbuilder i worked on the construction of the CONDOR (otherwise known as the grand piano as she was a wooden boat) and also the Teilsa the steel 66 foot maxi racer from North Netherlands. wonderful memories and the best footage I have ever seen of this great race. Long live the Bowman Yachts name where the Condor was built in Emsworth and designed by John Sharp. As for the Teilsa I had so many good memories helping Dirk Nauta the skipper and the crew prepare for the great event, ..Life is an adventure.

I first saw this in Wayne Ettle's Costa Mesa, CA shop back about 1979. While I never saw myself as an ocean racer, this film sealed the deal! Cool to hear a young Petah Montgomery and see a young Sir Peter B though! Awesome movie!

It’s difficult to imagine these boats in the southern ocean, navigating by sextant. At 4:45 they look like tourists, not racers. The accomplishment is all the more special.
