Golden Globe Race 2018-19: The Long Way Without GPS is not merely a chronicle of a race. It is a meditation on the human spirit tested by the sea—the kind of test that strips away comfort, technology, and pretense, and leaves only the sailor, the boat, and the long, unrelenting ocean. In 2018, fifty years after the original Golden Globe Race first dared men to sail alone, non-stop, around the world, a new generation of sailors answered the same call. But this was no modern regatta. There were no satellites, no GPS, no weather routing. The rules were spartan. The solitude, absolute. These ...

It always starts the same way: someone opens a cooler, someone else says “we should totally do it,” and then someone (usually me) gets peer-pressured out of her bra and into a suspiciously warm body of water while yelling “YOLO” with the misplaced confidence of a woman who clearly has not learned her lesson. Hi. I’m Kristin. And skinny dipping? It’s kind of my thing. Not intentionally.
