Conquering Fear: Atlantic Figure 8 Solo

Donation protected
Hey everyone, after my 2022 disaster voyage where Sparrow and I were caught in a nasty storm 400 miles northeast of Bermuda and turned upside-down, it is finally time to get back on the horse (so to speak). My goal is to set sail again and conquer not the ocean but the fear and the trauma that I dealt with for the past few years.

These trips come at a huge financial cost for me as I have always done them unsponsored, but this time, I want to open the gates to accepting donations as I will be bringing everyone along with the advancements of Starlink. In order to do so, I absolutely need your support.

The plan is to take on the Atlantic Figure 8: 14,000 miles, non-stop and alone, circumnavigating the North and South Atlantic. I hope to sight the islands of Cape Verde, Trindade, Tristan da Cunha, St. Helena, Ascension Island, Dominica, BVI, and Bermuda. We are looking at 4-5 months of sailing in both good and bad weather. If the funding comes quickly, I will depart in November of this year, 2025, or if not, then plan for the next fall, 2026.

Hopefully, you will consider helping to make this voyage a reality and I can once again go after this dream. Thank you for your support.
