The Race to Alaska, a 750 mile Cannonball Run up the Canadian coast, is a simple race: survive the unpredictable weather, navigate whirlpools created from 20kt tidal rips, dodge shipping traffic, and lastly avoid being eaten by bears all with no outside support on an engineless boat. What could possibly go wrong? Adam Cove of Team Wickedly Wildcat is fresh off his record-breaking finish in this year's race and he joins us for a firsthand account of his experience. From outfitting his 18' Catboat, sketchy overnight anchorages, and crossing the finish line to ringing the bell, what an adventure!
