Cosa tratta questo video
Kirsten Neuschäfer won the 2022 Golden Globe Race, becoming the first woman and the first South African to win a solo, non-stop, unassisted around-the-world sailing race.1:21:16 She completed the voyage aboard *Minnehaha*, a Cape George 36, navigating the Southern Ocean and rounding the three great capes without modern GPS or satellite weather technology.2:26 During the race, Neuschäfer performed a rescue of a fellow contestant at sea and set multiple fleet speed records.1:21:25 The race rules restricted participants to traditional boats designed before 1988 and under 36 feet in length.3:09 Neuschäfer managed the vessel’s maintenance, including minor chafe, while contending with unpredictable sea states caused by currents and shifting winds.53:01 Following the finish, she focused on restoring *Minnehaha* to ship-shape condition while processing the transition from eight months of isolation to public attention.1:24:40 The race confirmed that a heavy-displacement Cape George 36 is a viable, competitive choice for the Golden Globe Race, despite challenges in light-wind conditions.1:06:11
