They certainly set a new bench mark that is for sure but we love a challenge. They didnt have to sail 29000, their intended route was just under 22000 but the really did chase the wind. We are looking for the complete opposites that they did. Alan P

As far as I know, the unit next door to where Goodheart was being built was burnt down and although visibly unscathed, the structural integrity of the aluminium was compromised so they have just recently started building a new one...
