The Boat Geeks #6 - Kirsten Neuschafer (Adventurer, Solo Racer)
Recorded 2.9.24
Making history as the first woman to ever win a solo around the world race, South African sailor Kirsten Neuschafer is a humble, adventurous, and inspirational person for people all over the world.
Recorded aboard their floating studio in Port Townsend, WA, in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, your hosts Darren and Daeron take another deep dive into the world of boating.
This episode: D&D are honored to talk with Kirsten Neuschafer, Golden Globe Race winner and 2023 Female Rolex World Sailor of the Year. Learn how bicycling by herself from Germany to South Africa and skippering boats in the unforgiving high latitudes of the Antarctic and Southern Ocean helped prepare her for the grueling race - in which only three boats out of 17 even finished. Defying all odds with her racing inexperience and choice of vessel (a Cape George 36 cruising boat), Kirsten prevailed through perseverance and a positive attitude. She is truly an inspiration!
