The Mariner Podcast Ep.9: Racing to Cape Horn

Описание: In this episode I get to the exciting conclusion of my transit across the Southern Ocean in my Open 60 Spartan. After ending up 500Nm behind the fleet I had to screw my courage to the sticking place and start to push harder than I had ever pushed before. Slowly but surely I start to close the gap as I hammer South and East to Cape Horn.
Very soon however it becomes clear that catching up might not be my only problem- my arrival at Cape Horn is going to coincide with a 50 Knot Storm.

To catch the rest of the story- look for the podcast ('The Mariner) on Apple Podcasts or here on Youtube in the playlist 'Mariner Podcast'.

A note on the Previous Podcast Episodes.

Sorry but don't try looking for the rest of the Podcast before Episode 6 here on Youtube- it doesn't exist! It was only ever recorded on audio back then BUT it is available on Apple, Spotify, Google and in all the regular podcast places. https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast...

Who is the Mariner?

My name is Chris Stanmore-Major better known as CSM. I have over 300,000Nm experience in racing, cruising & expedition sailing and have raced twice around the world. I sailed solo around the world in the Velux 5 Oceans Race in 2011 (in Falcon's sister ship) becoming the 182nd person ever to circumnavigate alone.

This channel is for sailors of all skill levels and backgrounds. My passion is seamanship & self reliance and helping others realize their sailing dreams on their own boats - whatever size or shape of craft that may be.
