Cosa tratta questo video
A GGR 2026 competitor identified as Mara reports her position at approximately 13°N 28°W during a radio check-in on 30 September 2026.12:43 She describes discovering gooseneck barnacles along the waterline, on the rudder, and on the stern quarter of her boat the day before, then scrubbing them off by hand.27:15 Her technique: tie a rope to the bow, trail it along the hull, then fold over the line and dive down to scrub.27:34 She found no growth on the keel and nothing forward of the last quarter of the hull, making access straightforward.27:59 Her light-grey hull made the black barnacle clusters easy to spot from inside the boat at the transom.27:25 She also reports making ice cream using the top compartment of her fridge, which functions as a freezer when not overpacked.13:03 The boat is currently becalmed; her forecast shows wind arriving that evening and building the next day.28:27 She exchanges brief greetings with Pat and Etienne on the radio net.30:57 Checking for barnacles the day after going becalmed — when the boat is still and the hull is accessible — is the practical window she identifies.31:10
