OOPS! As you can all see , it's been a while since I posted , sorry about that! So, 2012 will be the 10th Anniversary of The Bermuda Challenge , a 22 hr 23 minute crossing of 740 miles of the The Western Atlantic in Bones , my Rennaissance Prowler 306 power catamaran. To celebrate the anniversary I am considering running my Prowler from Bermuda to the Bahamas, approx 1000 miles of open ocean. I intend to take 3-4 days over the trip, filming as we go, pursuing good fuel economy, staying online with Satellite communications, and taking some scientific data en route. I will be seeking advice on state of the art electronics, solar power for charging video batteries, lightweight desalination gear, and general ideas on which lightweight radar would be best, which engines offer the best power to weight / fuel economy etc etc. So , jump on board and chime in with Ideas, thoughts, advice , and psychiatric support!
