Andrew Ritchie, a Scottish sailor who has never crossed the equator, has entered the GGR2026 aboard a Saga 36.20:44 Ritchie lives on the west coast of Scotland, where he and his wife Margaret run a residential outdoor education centre on Loch Long, taking up to 60 school children per week through canoeing, climbing, mountaineering, and caving.3:03 He sold a data cabling company in 1999 and has since made multiple Atlantic crossings but has sailed exclusively in the Northern Hemisphere.6:00 His interest in the Saga 36 was sparked by Mark Slats's comment that he would choose one for a repeat attempt.9:49 The original in-mast reefing mast was replaced with a new spar built by Zezbars — the same mast specification Guy used in the 2022 GGR — reinforced beyond the original scantlings.23:43 For Southern Ocean heavy weather, Ritchie plans to deploy a Jordan Series Drogue rigged to dedicated chain plates, combined with what he calls "Lieutenant Dan tactics" from Forrest Gump.20:53 He acknowledges the deep isolation of the GGR as his main unknown, having sailed solo before but never at that duration or distance.25:38 Two other Saga 36 entries — including Mara — are in the fleet, creating an informal class race within the race.22:56
