I made it! 27 hour solo non stop! ( sailing solo )
Yes, that day threw a lot at me. 27 hours non-stop.
It's my birthday this week and I make another important incremental step forward in training for my Pacific Crossing. I learned a lot including what changes I need to make on the boat before I proceed further.
I hope you find this video update helpful. Episode 1 of Season 3 is coming up this weekend, but for now, I wanted to update you. I am safe and in good spirits working my boat in Mie Prefecture.
