The challenge of racing 60ft carbon machines so far north is giving a cult status to this race while also making it a must do event for skippers looking towards a lap of the planet in the big one, the Vendée Globe - But why?

On a well-built offshore boat, keel bolts are torqued at the factory and designed never to be touched. Production boats are a different story, but if you're on a Valiant or an Oyster...leave them alone. 📗 Get My Book: https://bethecaptain.com

We are Anthony & Cindy. Our boat is Impavidus (Latin for Fearless) In June 2018 we decided to retire early, we sold everything to sail around the world on our modified Bavaria 37. In our First season we made our way from our berth in Port Solent, Portsmouth, England. Down the South West coast of England to Dartmouth and down to the Mediterranean We crossed the North Sea/English Channel to Roscoff in France. Working our way down to Brest and on to La Rochelle, France. We spent the summer sailing around the Bay of Biscay and down through the Spanish rea’s and on to Portugal. From there we spent two weeks on the river Guardiana on the Portuguese/Spanish boarder. We entered the Mediterranean in September of that year and eventually stopped in Almeria Spain for the winter. Since then we have sailed on, through Spain, the Balearics, (where we spent 3 months) before heading back to the mainland of Spain to Barcelona and then on through Southern France and down the West Italian coast and its beautiful islands. Eventually finding a wonderful family run marina where we have wintered in Gaeta, Italy. Our two doggies Oscar George and Lady Rose are sailing with us. Both quite old they have adapted well to life aboard. We have been sailing and boating for 35 + years. Both starting at school in England; But we still learn something new every day! We are hoping to sail down the Italian coast to Sicily and on to Greece or possibly Croatia this year. We have had Impavidus since new in 2015 and we spent a full two years, while still working, adding to the equipment and inventory. Everything we thought we would need….. AIS, Long-range fuel tanks, Extra water tanks, rope cutters, a Brunton Auto prop, Extra solar, extra batteries, a freezer. Then all the ancillaries and equipment we needed. Tools, Spares, Clothing, a Rib and new outboard engine. A life raft and lots more.
