for all the naysayers here, I note that it's already been around alone
once. Seems like it ought to make it again :{))
What do you know about it, Skippy? Your boat is one of the slowest around.
Slow is safe for single-handing.
Fast is fast because it is light and high tech. Like a thoroughbred it
needs to be mollycoddled. It's an accident waiting to happen. Prone to
broaching and knockdowns for example. Make book on it. Archive this post.

Truth be known, I know nothing of RTW singlehanding, or singlehanding
anywhere, for that matter. I just observed that the boat's already been
around alone once, and another singlehanded offshore venture as well.
Apparently the boat CAN make it - whether it does again remains to be
seen...

Skip, taking a break after managing to hit each of the 4 previous mounting
holes from inside the new pod, first time; plotter and wiring to follow
