It is unfortunate but we do see a lot of rubbish in the water. However it does make for a good person overboard drill. @sailinghelios2023 Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/sailinghelios Find us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sailinghelios2023/ #sailing #sailinghelios #jeanneausunodessey410 #sunodessey410 #personoverboard #mob #retiredlife #retirement #retiredcouple #boatlife #medsailing #italy

Dee Caffari explains what a 7th circumnavigation means to her after the team aboard The Famous Project crossed the line off Ushant to set a new record for the first all female crew to complete a non-stop lap of the planet in the Jules Verne. Their performance in a boat that is clearly of a very different generation to the current crop of foiling machines and requires the crew to sail it in a more conventional way, makes for a fascinating story. When it comes to global records, it’s easy to simply focus on the first and the fastest and disregard any trip that doesn't meet this binary challenge. But when you look at the number of failed attempts at just completing the course, whatever the gender make up in the crew, simply completing it is a huge achievement. Their trip was successful because of their determination and resilience above anything else and their story is a fascinating one. Part 4 of our Lapping the Planet series looks at the closing stages of their trip and how patience and smart thinking delivered the result they were looking for.
