Cosa tratta questo video
Tapio Lehtinen, a participant in the Golden Globe Race, reports on his experience sailing his small, heavy-displacement boat to Hobart, Tasmania. Despite a lengthy, difficult rebuild that left him performing daily repairs in the Atlantic, he describes the vessel as structurally sound and "built like a tank."10:32 He relies on a Windpilot self-steering system for nearly all navigation, which allows him to remain below deck during heavy weather.17:56 He manages extreme conditions by wearing a layered clothing system featuring a thin Finnish Ursuit drysuit under heavy-weather gear, which keeps him dry and mobile on deck.19:18 For interior comfort, he maintains a dedicated dry zone separated by a canvas door and uses a Dickinson propane heater to manage humidity.7:05 He maintains a strict routine of daily porridge, fresh water from four 180-liter tanks, and consistent hand care using specialized greases and SealSkinz neoprene gloves.15:01 He credits his ability to remain comfortable during storms to the boat's soft motion and his focus on reading.11:18
