James & Kimmi - Catamaran structural failure 60nm offshore


Listen Later

James & Kimmi have sailed and free dived together since shortly after James purchased the 38 catamaran; SV Zingaro in 2016 before they met in Mexico. They share the story of their Catamaran's structural failure 60nm off the coast of Hawaii and their desperate efforts to stay afloat for several long hours while awaiting the US Coastguard's arrival. They also highlight their earlier adventures from more than 3 years of sailing the coastline and islands of South America and the Pacific and the amazing communities their travels have taken them to.

On the technical front they dive into para-anchors and drogues and recount their personal experience of what works and what doesn't in strong winds and big seas. Visit Ocean Sailing Podcast for offshore sailing opportunities and podcast extras and follow us on Facebook.
