Ep. 70: The Mini Transat

Around the Buoy

Next September, a group of single-handed sailors will leave France for the Caribbean in the Mini Transat, a regatta that celebrates the adventurous sprit of the early Trans-Atlantic races. In a fleet dominated by European skippers, one Mini will be flying the Stars and Stripes, PGN Ocean Racing skippered by our guest Peter Gibbons-Neff. Peter has been sailing in offshore races all his life and as it became difficult to sail in large teams because of Covid, he decided to give single handed sailing a try.
