Guy De Boer ne face un tur al ambarcațiunii sale Globul de Aur – Yachting Monthly
Looks like a valiant sailboat.
What a great character, such a shame it ended for him the way it did. ☹️
Best of luck.
İlginç!
I love this interview. I can not say if what Guy is telling is true not but what a formidable person! Straight from a movie!
What an unfortunate end to his journey.
Sad to see his lovely boat on the rocks, at least he is safe.
Sad to see it looks like Guy has already retired from the race.
Do you know where I can view the ggr documentary that he referenced?
If the sailboat hasn't got a dishwasher, espresso machine & a washer / dryer it's best not to risk it.
Every sailor sets their boat up different. My set up is to be able to sail with my eyes closed so u can keep your eyes on the horizon in the sails on the water speed depth rocks other boats and eyes on the back of your head and ur exhausted and wet and it's dark and ur hungry etc etc. I set up up basically to sail as if I was drunk or half asleep of half my senses gone and then hopefully I can manage well later.
Best of Luck to Guy and his Spirit after the events that led to his unfortunate withdrawal.
What a pity, that you cannot even pronounce the boats make understandable, Toshiba??? the most important word of the whole story missing. never heard of anything sounding similar to that name to make me up an idea, what it could be.
He did a lot of work evaluating the eligible boats and working with Bob Perry the naval architect to select the fastest. The interior is in such a shambles for so soon to the start. It’s unfortunate he crashed but he seems disorganized.
God, I wish I'm still kicking ass at 67.
This mess is a place 😂
So ironic he mentioned he might "sleep an hour or two" over the next few months, and how he emphasizes pushing mentally, etc. On the second leg? he fell asleep and the boat sailed onto a rocky shore, which ended the race. I feel bad for this sailor, but his demeanor tells me he can work thru the catastrophe.
Double line reef not single line……..is better.
I like everyone else wish I was him his joy for life and adventure is second to none ! Cheers mate
Here we are 6 months later. I've followed this race almost daily from the start and viewed as much as was there previous to the race. As a sailor with no means and had to break thru every obstacle to get my own boat when I was younger, I only could feel a kind of envy of Guy deBoer who obviously came from an entitled background and had every possible opportunity in sailing dropped at his front door. Yet upon the news of his terrible misfortune on the reefs off Africa, that German word schadenfreude crept into my being and I found myself fighting every bit to distance myself from this feeling, this whispered word. And the only way I found was to find a kind of cosmic balance in the perturbations of another GGR sailor, Elliot Smith, who by enticing every whimsy and cosmic giver of fortune, found himself a new life-affirming experience when sailing as far as he could in the southern ocean having given it every fearsome minute of his best attempt. Two sailors from opposing means, and the cosmos striking a balance. Sailing, how can there be any other passion.
