Condition: Gut. 185 pages : color illustrations, color maps, color portraits, Fotos, Zustand: geringe Gebrauchs- u. Lagerspuren, private Widmung im Vorsatz, sonst sehr gutes Exemplar. Text, Sprache: Englisch, Skipper's account of Lion New Zealand's participation in the 1985-6 Whitbread Round the World Yacht Race. Col. map on lining papers. PETER BLAKE has become a legend in New Zealand sporting history. He is one of only two yachtsmen in the world to have sailed in all four Whitbread Round the World races. With Ceramco New Zealand, in the 1981-82 Whitbread, he captured the hearts and the imagination of a nation as he and his crew overcame tremendous odds to finish the 27,000-mile classic with distinction. The race was vividly relived in the bestselling BLAKE'S ODYSSEY, one of the finest modern accounts of man against his oldest adversary - the sea. No sooner was that race over than Blake began planning for the next, this time in a new yacht, Lion New Zealand. The sea and the elements hadn't changed, but the race had: this time the focus was on big boats designed and built specifically for the race. It was the first time such boats had been campaigned in number for the honour of being fastest around the world. With big gear, clouds of sail and high loads and stresses, these maxi-yachts required the utmost skill from their crews. The 1985-86 Whitbread was characterised by hightech yachts manned by sailors who smashed all the records as they pushed themselves and their craft to the limits in the greatest yacht race ever. LION is the story of that epic adventure, from the early planning stages and the building of the yacht to the dramatic finish in Portsmouth. It is a superbly written account of one of the most exciting challenges of our time and a tribute to the courage and dedication of ocean-racing yachtsmen.
