Cape Horn to Alaska, by Nick Pochin

Nick Pochin, the owner and skipper of Festina Lente, a Discovery 55, circumnavigated with the Blue Water Rally in 2005-07.

Not content with this, he then sailed west about Cape Horn and North to Alaska, covering 35,000 nautical miles and travelling from 56 South to 59 North against the prevailing winds and currents in six months. Most people advised against it, but Nick is a tad stubborn!
