A GGR 2026 competitor sailing off the coast of Africa documents a morning routine aboard what he calls the "mighty pumpkin," a full-keel Bob Perry–designed boat.2:02:45 After an unusually good night's sleep following a demanding arrival at Lanzarote — sail changes, navigation into Marina Rubicon, and a spinnaker run that covered nearly 150 miles in 24 hours — he swaps portable solar panels between sides as the sun rises, rotating them manually throughout the day.1:44:34 He plans a 10 a.m. celestial sight and discusses the difficulty of taking star sights while tending a spinnaker.2:01:36 He monitors fishing buoys near the African coast, noting 65-fathom depths and the hazard of fishing gear, and tracks hurricane formation in the tropics during September.1:55:09 The SSB buddy-call system splits 15-plus sailors into groups of five; he listens in but his scheduled day is Wednesday.2:00:08 He compares his boat's minimal cockpit lighting and open layout favorably against modern boats, argues for full-keel offshore designs citing Hal Roth, and explains how a Hydrovane's auxiliary rudder aids reverse maneuvering.2:06:35 He also describes a watertight chain-locker compartment and a glassed-in double-hull section at the waterline as collision protection.2:15:58 A Jetboil Flash/Minimo mismatch — the burner cup doesn't lock — is flagged as a minor safety concern in rough conditions.1:49:37
