Today was my birthday. We had hoped to be in Faial by now, but we are still one day away due to a low pressure system that pushed us in the wrong direction for days. Birthdays for me is my favorite thing. I love to spoil others, make them feel special on their day - but even more I love my birthday! And Gabi knows this. And she knew it would be a chance it would be celebrated at sea - so she came prepared and made my birthday absolutely amazing. The highlight was maybe the letters she had gathered from family and friends for me to bring with me to the GGR and read of I’m having a bad day. It’s such a privilege to have friends like that. That will go through all that work to make sure I feel loved 🫶🏼 Thank you Gabi for making my day so special. Love you 🩷 ⚓ Life on the Showgirl is my journey toward one of the toughest solo sailing races on the planet: the Golden Globe Race — sailed solo, non-stop, and without modern technology.

The Strait of Messina lives up to its reputation. Sailors face a strong negative current and powerful headwinds, creating a challenging navigation experience. #MessinaStrait #sailing #navigation

I made this when I first moved onto my sailboat… And it still applies today. Bikini or sailing gear, I’m still the one sailing the boat. 🌊 ⚓ Life on the Showgirl is my journey toward one of the toughest solo sailing races on the planet: the Golden Globe Race — sailed solo, non-stop, and without modern technology.

With its aft helm stations, the Excess 14 delivers true sailing sensations, close to those of a monohull. Responsive, lively, and a joy to live aboard: a catamaran made for real sailors. #excess14 #catamaranlife #sailinglifestyle #comfortatsea #excesscatamarans
