THE BEGINNING OF THE ADVENTURE As I hung up the phone and begin running frantically across the parking lot... A car barrels in front of me blaring its horn. Carl pops his head up and yells 'whoa, what's the rush?' Its Another Adventure, she's sinking! I scream and point across Boca Ciega bay in Gulfport St Pete. Through the Thinly scattered boats across the Anchorage you could barely see the gray hull of Another Adventure, the bow was dipping bellow the surface and the stern gunwale only 2-3 ft from the water. it appeared as if there was no way to make it in time but I didn't miss a beat as I sprinted around his car and to the dinghy dock. Hoisting the sail on the sunfish and cursing the wind gods 'of course there's no damn wind, why would there be wind at a time like this?' I exclaimed with frustration. fortunately I am smart enough to keep a paddle on bored and begin making my way out swiftly. That was over 3 years and 7000 nautical miles of Another Adventure ago! when Another Adventure was in fact not my Adventure at all. The above is the beginning of a book I will hopefully one day finish and is a true story of how sometimes just doing the right thing can open doors beyond your wildest dreams! Which is what this channel is about and more importantly what LIFE is about! ....

A drone above the altantic. To undertake the crewed around-the-world record is as much about the human adventure as it is a technical and sporting challenge. The men and women working alongside Dona Bertarelli and Yann Guichard at Spindrift racing have been preparing this race against the clock for almost three years. The target: to sail around the world in less than 45 days, 13 hours and 42 minutes. The tough record they will try to beat was set by Loïck Peyron and his crew in 2012 on Banque Populaire V, which was renamed Spindrift 2 a year later. The French-Swiss team decided to use the same 40 m trimaran because they believed that the boat could be further optimised, a task that sailors, engineers and technicians at the team have been working on ever since. After countless hours of work at the boatyard and 40,000 nautical miles of racing and training, the Spindrift racing-prepared trimaran is all set to go. The team will officially go on stand-by on October 19th and wait for the ideal weather window.
