Qué cubre este vídeo

A trailer for a sailing project built around the Ocean La Brace, described as the first crewed around-the-world race under sail without GPS in over 30 years.0:06 The race follows the Southern Ocean and Cape Horn in four legs, using only the instruments available in 1973 during the original edition — no GPS, no modern weather data.0:23 Axel spent four years preparing, without a boat or crew, before finding a suitable vessel in Tahiti while the COVID-19 pandemic locked down millions and disrupted global travel.0:55 With the boat in Tahiti and the home port in Montreal, he had to sail it back to Quebec — a delivery of roughly 15,000 nautical miles, against prevailing currents, during the pandemic.1:07 The trailer frames that delivery voyage as the opening chapter of the larger race campaign, establishing the scale of the logistical challenge before the race itself begins.
