They boat has been in service for many years and the gentleman in the article is a well rounded skipper.
The young woman in the article has been living about for a year so should know the ropes pertty well.
Not a lot new here, other than the idea to stay out to sea.
The adventure has a website and support staff with SATCOM links to the vessel.
Look like it might be fun in some ways.
Or a short trip to the funny farm.
Sorry to hear about their recent collision with the tanker. Their electronics must not include radar with audible alarm warnings for situations just like this. I might have the opportunity to crew a Beneteau 44 from the Chesapeake to Florida/Gulf Coast after the coming hurricane season, and I know it has this kind of electronics onboard.
