Jean Du Sud, an A30 that's been around the world-non stop, anchored next to us this week.
In Response To: Alberg 30 Association's 50th ()

Sailed into Pulpit Harbor on nearly no wind. I googled Jean Du Sud yesterday to see the owner had made(nearly) the non stop circumnavigation, and it's on video and is well documented.

Interesting boat/owner, all around. Powered by the outboard you see, storage battery generation is a solar panel and a wind generator.

His hard tender(which the owner used extensively for photography in Pulpit), is tied on the starboard side deck(no drag, no davits, hmm..).

The owner sails Jean Du Sud like a dinghy. There's almost always wind enough for a dinghy.
