“I have been to the sea three times in the past 10 years in attempted circumnavigations. I can tell you that the sea is changing for the worse”

Abhilash Tomy - news conference.
2nd place finisher. Good on you, Abhilash!
#GGR2022 competitor Abhilash Tomy - 2nd place finisher has about 10-12 knots of wind, with about 7.0 miles to go.
Coming into Les Sables d’Olonne, France - after a great around the world adventure.
Abhilash was severely injured during his GGR 2018 attempt, in the bad storm in Southern Indian Ocean. Was rescued, and went on to strenuous recovery.
Abhilash was not going to be denied a completion and returned to a strong second place finish - that is coming to a close later this night.
Kirsten Neuschäfer pulling into Les Sables d’Olonne after 235 days at sea, winning the Golden Globe Race, and thereby becoming the first woman to win a round the world solo sail race.

Kirsten Neuschäfer finished first in the 2022 Golden Globe, becoming the only woman to ever win a solo circumnavigation yacht race. And she did it with a little help from her friends in P.E.I. #GGR2022 https://t.co/ajtDdxIa21
New livestream and across the line.
#GGR2022 Winner: Kirsten Neuschäfer

Very close to the last mile - and the wind is so quiet. Water is nearly glass, with a light swell.
This last mile is going to take a long time.
No official announcement to her, yet - that she will be the winner. Hopefully, no one has let the news slip via radio.
Looks likes a historic finish for the #ggr2022 this week: it’s either first woman or first Indian to win a round the world race by the 3 great capes. Congratulations @KirstenGGR & @abhilashtomy …. amazing endurance for over 232 days in extreme conditions
#sailing @ggr2022
its getting really close to the finish of #ggr2022 for @abhilashtomy & @KirstenGGR ... both amazing sailors. This is an endeavor that needs more than just sailing skills.
The race projected to end this week (Fri/Sat)

Moitessier's sail in 1968 was marked by a legendary act of renunciation - he abandoned #GGR1968 just before the finish line & continued #sailing solo. His journey was a testament to the power of simplicity & the beauty of a life at sea
