CLUB MARINE TV CHANNEL: https://youtu.be/epwqrhtiXi8 The news that Wild Oats XI was struck by lightning at the weekend is a significant setback to what has been a very comprehensive period of preparation for the team. Mark ‘Ricko’ Richards, the ever-upbeat skipper of Wild Oats XI and his team will doubtless take this challenge in their stride, maintaining focus on their declared end game of completing this year’s race to Hobart after damage-induced retirements in the last two years. In this interview with Ricko we hear why and how the presence of Peter Harburg's Black Jack has sharpened the game for both boats and their crews in looking to stare down the competition from InfoTrack and LDV Comanche in this year's race.
Getting up while it’s still dark feels impossible — every single time. But the when I step into the cockpit and take over the watch, it’s like the world hits pause just for me. The silence. The stillness. The sky slowly shifting from black to gold. And honestly… the best part? Breakfast is whatever snack you grab first, because no one is there to judge. It’s the kind of magic you forget exists until you’re the only one awake to witness it. Morning watch isn’t just a duty. ✨It feels like a gift✨ Have you ever done a morning watch? What’s your favourite part — or what do you imagine it would be? #circumnavigation #sailing #cutedog #mediterranean #cruising #sailingdog #sailaway #sailinglife #liveaboard #sailingcouple #shortoftheday
