Sunfish – Race Version

$ 6,150.00

“The Sunfish is pure sailing—the sail in the wind, the board in the water, and you in the hull in between—one hand on the tiller, the other on the sheet and the wind in your hair. Pure sailboat racing, too. For the racing sailor, it is the essence of yacht racing. It was the first truly one-design boat, rigidly controlled by the manufacturer, with even the sails limited to one loft (for measured sails) and very little that could be done in the way of adding expensive go-fasts. No need for a new set of sails every year. No need to keep buying or changing expensive hardware to keep up with the latest sailing theory.” – Will White

Please email us to discuss the type of boat you would like along with sail color specifications, and delivery options.

Ice Blue with Navy Blue Trim

Shoreline Sailboats is proud to be an authorized dealer for the Sunfish from Laser Performance.

LaserPerformance is the only builder of the original Sunfish.  We especially like the Sunfish for its versatility as a kid-friendly family boat, and an all out racing machine. We recognize the Sunfish as an amazing boat because it has such a long and rich heritage. Sunfish sailors are an incredibly diverse group who share a passion for one of the most popular boats ever conceived.

Most popular sailboat ever built:

Sunfish This is the classic boat you grew up with. World class racers such as Dennis Conner, of America’s Cup fame, and Gary Hoyt, who developed the Freedom class and won the first Sunfish worlds in 1972, learned to sail at the tiller of the Sunfish.

Will White’s  “The Sunfish Book” , “The Sunfish is pure sailing—the sail in the wind, the board in the water, and you in the hull in between—one hand on the tiller, the other on the sheet and the wind in your hair. Pure sailboat racing, too. For the racing sailor, it is the essence of yacht racing. It was the first truly one-design boat, rigidly controlled by the manufacturer, with even the sails limited to one loft (for measured sails) and very little that could be done in the way of adding expensive go-fasts. No need for a new set of sails every year. No need to keep buying or changing expensive hardware to keep up with the latest sailing theory.”

1993 Whitebread Racing Sailboat

Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Make Whitebread

Model Racing Sailboat

Category Sailboats

Posted Over 1 Month

1993 Whitebread Racing Sailboat ‘Yamaha’ was the overall class winning Whitbread 60 in the 1993 Whitbread Round the World Yacht Race.  She was skippered by Ross Fields and at the end of the race she was taken to California where she became the basis of the America’s Challenge campaign for the 1997 race. After the campaign’s new boat was built; Yamaha was used very little; by 2001 she had all but stopped sailing and went into a long storage period.  Essentially therefore this boat has only sailed a few thousand miles since winning the 1993 race.  9 months ago that storage period ended and Yamaha had $20,000 of work done on her underwater sections to prepare her for a new operational life.  Work was begun on the interior repainting the yellowing Kevlar/epoxy interior into a fresher shade of white, new batteries were bought, the main engine and generator’s 175amp 24v Alternators were rebuilt by Lewco in Long Beach, the engine bay was cleaned and the main engine and generator overhauled, the electrical system was checked through by a professional and the sail inventory unpacked. All this preparation was ahead of the boat being brought round to the Atlantic with another Whitbread 60 to become part of a new race charter organization (www.spartanoceanracing.com) but as it was there was only time to prepare and move one boat in the available timeframe and so Yamaha was left in San Pedro which is a great environment for this kind of boat being very dry, with low humidity. The plan is to return to California next season and bring her South to the Panama Canal and on to the Caribbean as we did with our other Whitbread 60 this summer. We offer here for sale only to create options for ourselves as a new start up company.  An opportunity exists for a new owner to allow us to charter the vessel each year at an agreed price thereby creating  an income for themselves whilst still owning one of the world’s most famous offshore racing boats.  If you want to learn more about this boat contact the agent and they will put you in contact with me Chris Stanmore-Major the current owner of the boat and I can talk you through the details.

28' Reconditioned European Racing Sailboat

Fairfield, Connecticut

Make Artekno

Length 28.0

Reconditioned Artekno h28 race boat for sale: $6995.00 The h28 has been in production since the mid-1970s. The current European fleet numbers in excess of 6000 class boats that have been built by four yards over the years. If you Google Artekno h28 you will find pictures and videos showing how well the boat performs and why it continues to be an active fleet. With a fine entry and narrow beam the boat works well to windward and moves easily in light air. While the boat races with a crew of three it is easily sailed by a single sailor. The boat is currently set up for singlehanded daysailing. Halyards are led aft to the cockpit and all mainsail shaping controls—boomvang, outhaul, and Cunningham—are controlled at the aft end of the boom. The main sheeting system is on top of a new Lewmar #2 traveler mounted on a stainless steel mid-cockpit bridge that includes a new Edson grab bar. The main is new and is integrated into a Tides Track System®. The new low stretch jib sheets lead to new Lewmar #16 self-tailing winches. The headstay sports a Harken foil with luff tape feeder. Current auxiliary power is delivered by a Minnkota 55# thrust electric trolling motor. With ice chest, fenders, shore power, new dock lines, rewired 12 volt system with new battery and lifelines with stanchions and pulpits, the boat is ready to go sailing. I estimate that I have installed close to $10,000 in new equipment to recondition the boat for fast and fun sailing. As rigged the asking price is $6995.00. There are two power options available as an alternative to the trolling motor: a 5hp Mercury four stroke long shaft outboard with stern mounting bracket—an additional $500.00 or a Torqeedo 1003L long shaft that can mount on the side or rear of the boat based on personal preference—an additional $700.00, battery not included. New major equipment list: Mainsail and jib. Bow and Stern pulpits stanchions and new life lines. Tides track system. Lewmar self-tailing #16 winches. Nautos deck organizers and 3X and 2X rope clutches mounted on custom teak boxes. Vang-Master gas hydraulic rigid boomvang. Two Harken Magic Boxes® for sail control. Harken headstay foil with luff tape grove. The boat is listed locally as well. I reserve the right to pull the listing at any time.

1976 Able Poitin 24ft Racing Sailboat

Gainesville, Florida

0 0 1 411 2348 UF 19 5 2754 14.0 Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE 1976 24ft Able Poitin Sloop This boat was completely restored in 2011 and outfitted with the best gear and materials around. The Able Poitin was a racing boat made by Bob Evelyn just a year before the J24 came out and was built to be a fast offshore racer. There were only around 30-50 of these boats made and her uniqueness turns heads everywhere. I captained this boat a few thousand miles over the course of three trips from St. Augustine, FL to the Abacos, Bahamas and one trip to Miami and back. Needless to say this is an extremely tough boat capable of dominating races on the water or eating up offshore miles at a remarkable pace. I have all receipts. No expense was spared in her restoration and it shows. Included in the sale is a west marine inflatable dinghy with collapsible rigid floor. The 10hp mercury will fit on this dinghy. This is how I got to shore, went fishing/diving, and explored small inlets in the Bahamas. It condenses down into a neat large duffle bag and can be stored inside the boat when traveling long distances. This boat brought me remarkable experiences and memories I will never forget. I will personally make sure she is a well-oiled machine at time of sale. Here is a list of what was installed and much more isn’t listed BRAND NEW HULL AND BOTTOM PAINT! Trailer -Included is a fully functioning trailer. The axle is fitted with electronic brakes, and the wheels and tires are brand new and oversized. The trailer has LED lights.

Condor 40 Ocean Racing Trimaran Sailboat

Boca Raton, Florida

40' Condor Racing Trimarin. Built in 1988, this vessel sat way up the Miami River for 10 years, so it's had very little use. Extremely fast, very strong and stable. Great sails and equipment. Main, 110% Genoa (on roller-furler), Spinnaker Twin 4-Stroke 9.9 outboards with lift-brackets mounted on custom aluminum transom, Custom aluminum radar arch on stern, custom Edison wheel and pedestal with fixed rudder - (original kick-up rudder included), Stainless Steel Dodger, auto-pilot, GPS, VHF, some new rigging with Sta-Lok fittings, new main and spare halyards and other new lines. Self Tailing Winches, New canvas and oak below, porta-potti. Slab Reefing, Lazy Jacks, Stax-Packer, 2 Stainless Anchor mounts, All lines lead to cockpit for Cockpit Control, Boom Vang, Preventers, etc. 2 large hatches replace the original small inspection ports in each Ama (4 hatches - 2 in each hull) - making huge interior storage space in each hull - These hatches are large enough to allow a sailor to get down below into each Ama. The original hulls did not have this option. You can store sails, fenders, lines, fuel, etc in this space, allowing more room in the main hull for your personal equipment. This feature turns this racing machine into a comfortable cruiser. This is a Thoroughbred racing machine. Condors were built to OSTAR standard.,They are Blue-Water race tough, using top-of-the line materials like E and Bi-axial glass; and built to last. Also, vinylester resin was used throughout, which has kept Condors from suffering blistering issues. I have seen 6-8 foot waves break over this boat while sailing to windward and did not hear any creaking. This boat was built for short-handed trans-Atlantic racing. Clear Title in hand. The Captain of this vessel raced with Jack Petith (winner of the '84 OSTAR and '82 Route du Rhuum) This vessel is listed on Craigslist South Florida and Sailboatlistings.com so may be sold locally. Google: 40' Condor for more info.

I just sailed it last week and had a blast. This is faster than any modern Hobie I've ever been on. It has 280sq ft of sail.

Sailor Cole Brauer makes history as the first American woman to race solo around the world

Aboard her 40-foot racing boat First Light ,  29-year-old Cole Brauer just became the first American woman to race nonstop around the world by herself.

The New York native pulled into A Coruña, Spain, on Thursday after a treacherous 30,000-mile journey that took 130 days.

She thanked a cheering crowd of family and fans who had been waiting for her on shore.

“This is really cool and so overwhelming in every sense of the word,” she exclaimed, before drinking Champagne from her trophy.

The 5-foot-2 powerhouse placed second out of 16 avid sailors who competed in the Global Solo Challenge, a circumnavigation race that started in A Coruña with participants from 10 countries. The first-of-its-kind event   allowed a wide range of boats to set off in successive departures based on performance characteristics. Brauer started on Oct. 29, sailing down the west coast of Africa, over to Australia, and around the tip of South America before returning to Spain.

Brauer is the only woman and the youngest competitor in the event — something she hopes young girls in and out of the sport can draw inspiration from.

“It would be amazing if there was just one girl that saw me and said, ‘Oh, I can do that too,’” Brauer said of her history-making sail.

It’s a grueling race, and more than half of the competitors have dropped out so far. One struck something that caused his boat to flood, and another sailor had to abandon his ship after a mast broke as a severe storm was moving in.

The four-month journey is fraught with danger, including navigating the three “Great Capes” of Africa, Australia and South America. Rounding South America’s Cape Horn, where the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans meet, is often likened to climbing Mount Everest because of its perfect storm of hazards — a sharp rise in the ocean floor and whipping westerly winds push up massive waves. Combined with the frigid waters and stray icebergs, the area is known as a graveyard for ships, according to NASA. Brauer  said  she was “so unbelievably stoked” when she sailed past Cape Horn in January.

Marco Nannini, organizer of the Global Solo Challenge, said the comparison to scaling Mount Everest doesn’t capture the difficulty of the race. Sailing solo means not just being a skipper but a project manager — steering the boat, fixing equipment, understanding the weather and maintaining one’s physical health.

Nannini cited the relatively minuscule number of people who have sailed around the world solo — 186, according to the International Association of Cape Horners — as evidence of the challenges that competitors face. More than 6,000 people have climbed Mount Everest, according to  High Adventure Expeditions .

Brauer stared down 30-foot waves that had enough force to throw her across the boat. In a scare caught on camera, she badly injured her rib   near the halfway point of the event. At another point, her team in the U.S. directed Brauer to insert an IV into her own arm due to dehydration from vomiting and diarrhea.

She was able to stay in constant communication with members of her team, most of whom are based in New England,   and keep herself entertained with Netflix and video calls with family through Starlink satellites.   That’s also how Brauer was able to use Zoom to connect with NBC News for an interview, while she was sailing about 1,000 miles west of the Canary Islands.

While Brauer was technically alone on First Light, she had the company of 450,000 followers on Instagram, where she frequently got candid about life on an unforgiving sea while reflecting on her journey.

“It all makes it worth it when you come out here, you sit on the bow, and you see how beautiful it is,” she said in an Instagram video, before panning the camera to reveal the radiant sunrise.

Brauer grew up on Long Island but didn’t learn to sail until she went to college in Hawaii. She traded in her goal of becoming a doctor for life on the water. But she quickly learned making a career as a sailor is extremely difficult, with professional racers often hesitant to welcome a 100-pound young woman on their team.

Even when she was trying to find sponsors for the Global Solo Challenge, she said a lot of people “wouldn’t touch her with a 10-foot pole” because they saw her as a “liability.”

Brauer’s message to the skeptics and naysayers? “Watch me.”

“I push so much harder when someone’s like, ‘No, you can’t do that,’ or ‘You’re too small,’” Brauer explained.

“The biggest asset is your mental strength, not the physical one,” Nannini said. “Cole is showing everyone that.”

Brauer hopes to continue competing professionally and is already eyeing another around-the-world competition, but not before she gets her hands on a croissant and cappuccino.

“My mouth is watering just thinking about that.”

Alone on the Ocean, With 400,000 Friends

As Cole Brauer sped to the finish of a solo race around the world, she used Instagram to blow up sailing’s elitist image.

• Published Feb. 29, 2024 Updated March 7, 2024

Video dinner parties, spa days, stuffed animals, favorite hoodies and cozy, colorful fleece blankets. Cole Brauer’s Instagram feed hardly feels like the work of someone racing a 40-foot sailboat around the world in the Global Solo Challenge. But Ms. Brauer, 29, is not an average ocean racer.

In 2022, Ms. Brauer had tried out for another competition, the Ocean Race, which is considered the pinnacle of professional ocean racing. Sailors in that race are highly trained, wear matching foul weather gear and have corporate sponsors. And most of them are men. Ms. Brauer, who had sailed thousands of miles on high performance ocean racing boats, felt she was ready to join their ranks.

But after competing in trials in France, Ms. Brauer was told she was “too short for the Southern Ocean” and was sent on her way.

In spite of her small stature — she stands 5 feet 1 inch — Ms. Brauer rounded Cape Horn, Chile, on Jan. 26, the last of the three great capes of her journey to finish the Global Solo Challenge. It is a feat most of the Ocean Race sailors picked instead of her have never even attempted. And despite being the youngest competitor in the race, she is ranked second overall, just days away from reaching the finish line in A Coruña, Spain.

Along the way, her tearful reports of breakages and failures, awe-struck moments during fiery sunrises, dance parties and “shakas” signs at the end of each video have garnered her a following that has eclipsed any sailor’s or sailing event’s online, even the Ocean Race and the America’s Cup, a prestigious race that is more well known by mainstream audiences.

“I’m so happy to have rounded the Horn,” Ms. Brauer said in a video call from her boat, First Light, after a morning spent sponging out endless condensation and mildew from its bilges. “It feels like Day 1. I feel reborn knowing I’ll be in warmer weather. The depression you feel that no one in the world can fix that. Your house is trying to sink and you can’t stop it.”

Shifting gears, she added, “It’s all getting better.”

Ms. Brauer’s rise in popularity — she has more than 400,000 followers on Instagram — has come as a surprise to her, but her achievements, combined with her bright personality, have struck a chord. And she has set a goal of using her platform to change the image of professional ocean sailing.

“Cole wants to prove you can go around the world and watch Netflix every once in a while and wear your pajamas,” said Lydia Mullan, Ms. Brauer’s media manager. “As for her mental health, she’s really creating a space in her routine for herself, to create that joy she hasn’t seen in other sailors.”

Four months after she began the Global Solo Challenge, a solo, nonstop race around the world featuring sailboats of different sizes, Ms. Brauer is holding strong. Sixteen sailors began the journey and only eight remain on the ocean, with the Frenchman Philippe Delamare having finished first on Feb. 24 after 147 days at sea.

Ms. Brauer, who was more than a week ahead of her next closest competitor as of Thursday morning, is on track to set a speed record for her boat class, and to be the first American woman to complete a solo, nonstop sailing race around the world.

Her Authentic Self

Ms. Brauer has been happy to turn the image of a professional sailor on its head. Competitors in the Ocean Race and the America’s Cup tend to pose for static social media posts with their arms crossed high on their chests, throwing stern glares. Ms. Brauer would rather be more comfortable.

She brought objects like fleece blankets on her journey, despite the additional weight, and said solo sailing has helped give her the freedom to be herself.

“Without those things I would be homesick and miserable,” she said of her supply list. “We need comfort to be human. Doing my nails. Flossing. It’s hard for the general public to reach pro sailors. People stop watching. If you treat people below you, people stop watching.”

Other female sailors have noticed the same disconnect. “The year I did the Vendée Globe, Michel Desjoyeaux didn’t mention that anything went wrong,” Dee Caffari, a mentor of Ms. Brauer’s who has sailed around the world six times, said of that race’s winner. “Then we saw his jobs list after the finish and we realized he was human.”

Ms. Brauer, as her social media followers can attest, is decidedly human.

They have gotten used to her “hangout” clothes and rock-out sessions. Her team produces “Tracker Tuesdays,” where a weather forecaster explains the routes Ms. Brauer chooses and why she uses different sails, and “Shore Team Sunday,” where team members are introduced.

“In the beginning I looked at what she was doing, posting about washing her knickers in bucket and I was like, ‘No! What are you doing?’” Ms. Caffari said. “I’ve been so professional and corporate in my career. She’s been so authentic and taken everyone around the world with her. Cole is that next generation of sailor. They tell their story in a different way and it’s working.”

Finding a Purpose

Ms. Brauer was introduced to sailing at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Those days of casual racing on the turquoise waters of Kaneohe Bay informed her vision of an inclusive sailing community. That image was shattered when she came to the mainland to try her hand at professional sailing.

“When I came to the East Coast it was so closed off,” she said of those early experiences. “I couldn’t get a job in the industry. Pro sailors were jaded. They didn’t want anyone to take their job. It’s a gig-based economy. Competition, we’re pinned against each other, especially women in high-performance sailing since there are fewer of us.”

“This whole process of being a pro sailor over the past five years, I feel mentally punched in the face and my legs kicked out from under me,” she added. “I screamed and I cried. Without those experiences I wouldn’t be as mentally tough. It made me callused.”

A big break happened when she landed a gig as boat captain for Michael Hennessy’s successful Class40 Dragon. The boat was a perfect platform to hone her ocean sailing skills as she ripped up and down the East Coast delivering it to races, often alone, pushing Dragon to its limits. Her Instagram posts of those adventures drew attention, and she was invited to tryout for the Ocean Race, a fully crewed race around the world in powerful 65-footers.

“I was crushed,” Ms. Brauer said of being rejected after the trials.

Ms. Brauer, though, found a new purpose. After months of living in her van and working on Dragon, she found a benefactor in F.K. Day, the president of World Bicycle Relief and the executive vice president of SRAM Corporation, who, along with his brother Lincoln, agreed to buy a boat and fund a massive refit for the Global Solo Challenge, which was only three months away.

Conducting the hurricane of activity last summer in Newport, R.I., Ms. Brauer knew this was her moment to shine. But representatives for her new sponsors had reservations about her bold social media experiment.

“I got a massive pushback: ‘How can you be so vain. This isn’t important. We don’t want to pay for this,’” she said. “I said none of this is going to matter if the world can’t see it.”

Her boat was covered with cameras her shore team could monitor, with technology allowing for constant recording that could be used to capture unexpected twists. Ms. Brauer got some immediate traction, but nothing prepared her for the numbers she would hit once the race began.

“We were taking bets in Spain,” said Ms. Brauer, who had to sail First Light nearly 3,000 miles from Newport to Spain as a qualifier for the race. “There was a photo of me excited we hit 10,000 followers. Ten thousand for a little race? That’s massive.”

A few months later she has 40 times that count.

A Dangerous Journey

Only a handful of solo ocean racers have been American, all of whom being male. Now Ms. Brauer has a larger following than any of them, pushing far beyond the typical reach of her sport.

“This is a really good case study,” says Marcus Hutchinson, a project manager for ocean racing teams. “For me she’s an influencer. She’s a Kardashian. People will be looking for her to promote a product. She doesn’t need to worry about what the American sailors think. That’s parochial. She has to split with the American environment.”

Unlike her peers, Ms. Brauer is happy to do some extracurricular work along the way toward goals like competing in the prestigious Vendée Globe. “I’m part of the social media generation,” she said. “It’s not a burden to me.”

The playful videos and colorful backdrop, though, can make it easy for her followers to forget that she is in the middle of a dangerous race. Half her competitors in the Global Solo Challenge have pulled out, and ocean races still claim lives, particularly in the violent, frigid storms of the Southern Ocean.

“She was apprehensive,” Ms. Caffari said of Ms. Brauer’s rounding Cape Horn. “I told her: ‘You were devastated that you didn’t get on the Ocean Race. Now look at you. Those sailors didn’t even get to go to the Southern Ocean.’”

The question now is how Ms. Brauer will retain her followers’ desire for content after the race is over.

“She will be unaware of the transition she went through,” Mr. Hutchinson said. “She’s become a celebrity and hasn’t really realized it.”

Ms. Brauer, however, said she received as much from her followers as she gave them.

“They are so loving,” she said. “I send a photo of a sunset, and they paint watercolors of the scene to sell and raise money for the campaign. When I start to feel down, they let me stand on their shoulders.”

She sailed her way into the history books. 

A 29-year-old skipper from New York has become the first US woman to sail solo around the world.

Cole Brauer, from Long Island, tearfully reunited with her family in A Coruña, Spain, on Thursday after a gruelling 30,000-mile journey that took 130 days.

The 5-foot-2 trailblazer placed second out of 16 in the daring Global Solo Challenge, which kicked off in October off the coast of the port city, located in northwestern Spain.

“I can’t believe it guys. I sailed around the world,” Brauer said as she approached the finish line in an Instagram live video. “That’s crazy. That’s absolutely crazy. This is awesome. Let’s just do it again. Let’s keep going!”

She was the only woman in the event and also the youngest competitor. She sailed into A Coruña to a cheering crowd just a day before International Women’s Day on March 8.

“It would be amazing if there was just one girl that saw me and said, ‘Oh, I can do that too,’” Brauer  told NBC  of her history-making effort. More than half of the other competitors has dropped out as of Thursday.

Brauer’s  sailing profile on Global Solo Challenge’s website  said her goal has always been to be “the First American Woman to Race Around the World.”

“With this goal, I hope to show that this very male-dominated sport and community can become more open and less ‘traditional,'” it reads.

The East Hampton native didn’t even take up sailing until she decamped to the University of Hawai’i for college in 2014, her profile explained.

“I grew up on a nature preserve, wandering through the tall grass of the creek and playing in the mud watching the tide come in,” she said of her childhood in Suffolk County.

“When I moved to Hawaii for university, all I wanted was to get out on the water. Feel at home. Accessing the sailing community in Hawaii was the logical step,” she added.

Brauer turned pro after college, and started seriously chasing the idea of a round-the-world race after her mentor, Tim Fetsch, sent her a book by record-setting female skipper Dame Ellen MacArthur.

By the time she set sail on her global adventure on Oct. 29, Brauer was already a record-setter: Last summer, she became the first woman to win the Bermuda One-Two race, the Providence Journal reported at the time.

Brauer documented the treacherous Global Solo Challenge for her 459,000 Instagram followers from aboard her beloved 40-foot monohull racing boat, First Light.

Like her pint-sized, 100-pound owner, First Light has a quicksilver edge – and is only large enough to typically hold a one- or two-person crew.

The race path took Brauer down the western coast of Africa before she sailed into the Southern Ocean in early December, where she’d cement second place in the challenge.

She often showed fans her peaceful mornings and on-board workout sessions in the Atlantic Ocean.

“Cole wants to prove you can go around the world and watch Netflix every once in a while, and wear your pajamas,” her media manager, Lydia Mullan,  told the New York Times  of the realistic look at boat life.

“As for her mental health, she’s really creating a space in her routine for herself, to create that joy she hasn’t seen in other sailors,” Mullan added.

But even Brauer’s tenacious outlook at times gave way for the hardships of living at sea.

In December, she suffered a rib injury when she was violently thrown across her boat because of broaching — when a boat unintentionally changes direction toward the wind — in the rough waters near Africa. 

Despite the injury, Brauer said she had no other choice but to power through the pain and keep sailing.

“There’s no option at that point. You’re so far away from land that there’s no one who can rescue you or come and grab you,” she told the “Today” show Thursday. “You kind of just need to keep moving along and keep doing everything.”

Brauer’s grit during the journey recalled her time in Hawaii, when she borrowed from her background as a varsity soccer player, track and field runner, and cheerleader to thrive on the UH team — all while juggling her studies in nutrition science and a full-time job. 

“It’s more strategy than anything,” she told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser in May 2016, when she captained the four-time national championship-qualifying team.

Brauer told NBC on Sunday that solo sailors “have to be able to do everything.”

“You have to be able to get up even when you’re so exhausted and you have to be able to fix everything on the boat.”

She reached the Pacific Ocean on December 29 and traveled past the southernmost point of South America and back into the Atlantic on January 27.

As she missed the holidays back home, Brauer decorated First Light with decorations fit for the occasion — pumpkins and ghosts for Halloween, a small felt Christmas tree, and broke out a dress and champagne for New Year’s Day. 

Brauer also told the outlet that she started to feel the boat “deteriorating” and “starting to break down” as she made her final push through the Atlantic. 

She then deliberately slowed her arrival time near the finish line to coordinate with the “first light” — when light is first seen in the morning — in honor of her boat’s namesake.

“I’m glad that out of all times, I’m coming in at first light,” Brauer said. “It’s only necessary.”

As she crossed the finish line, Brauer held two flares above her head to signal an end to her over four-month-long campaign.

“Amazing finish!!!! So stoked! Thank you to everyone that came together and made this process possible,” she wrote on Instagram.

Following her second-place finish, Brauer received a fresh cappuccino and croissant, the breakfast she had been craving for months while at sea, she said.

French skipper Philippe Delamare, who started the race a month before Brauer, won the Global Solo Challenge on Feb. 24. Start dates were staggered based on performance characteristics.

A highlight of Brauer’s return to dry land will be reuniting with her mom, dad, and younger sister.

“They think I’m nuts,” Brauer told the Providence Journal of her parents’ response to her big sailing dream.

“I think that they’re much more proud of me now, especially because they’re starting to realize that this 10-year adventure I’ve been on isn’t just me gallivanting around the world…not really fulfilling what my mind and body was made to do, which is what my parents always wanted me to do,” she added.

Now, Brauer is joining a storied lineage of esteemed female skippers who came before her.

Polish skipper Krystyna Chojnowska-Liskiewicz was the first woman to sail solo around the world, traveling almost 36,000 miles from 1976 to 1978. 

British sailor Ellen MacArthur became the fastest solo sailor to sail around the world in 2005 when she traveled over 31,000 miles in 71 days, 14 hours, 18 minutes 33 seconds.

Brauer hopes to serve as the same inspiration as the sailing pioneers. 

“I push so much harder when someone is like, ‘you can’t do that.’ And I’m like, ‘OK, watch me,’” she told NBC. “It would be amazing if there was one other girl who saw me and said, “Oh, I can do that too.”

Virgin Racing Aim to Make History in Moscow‏ Formula E

Virgin Racing drivers Sam Bird and Jaime Alguersuari prepare for first ever electric-race in the Russian capital

Virgin Racing drivers Sam Bird and Jaime Alguersuari have arrived in Moscow for the ninth race of the FIA Formula E series confident of putting the British team into a strong position ahead of the season finale in Battersea Park on June 27th and 28th.

Following an iconic venue in Monaco and a unique circuit in Berlin, Moscow presents a beautiful, vibrant and historic backdrop for the modern race series. The 2.39km street circuit will see the Virgin Racing duo of Sam Bird and Jaime Alguersuari race alongside the Moskva River, adjacent to the Kremlin and past Red Square and Saint Basil’s Cathedral.

The Virgin Racing team, backed by Sir Richard Branson, are currently in fifth position in the FIA Formula E championship with 98 points and are entering a decisive stage of the season with only three races remaining.

Speaking ahead of the ninth e-Prix:

Sam Bird, Virgin Racing driver said, “We are at a stage in the season now where every point that we can earn is important. My teammate, Jaime Alguersuari, and I really need to be earning double figures in Moscow to put ourselves in a position to push for a championship win when we finish the season in London in a few weeks time. In Monaco and Berlin I raced extremely well and so if I can qualify strongly in Moscow then I see no reason why we can not be at the top of the podium on Saturday evening. I have always loved racing on street circuits, but this one is going to be particularly special considering all of the incredible landmarks that we pass on this track."

Jaime Alguersuari, Virgin Racing driver, said, “I am very fortunate as a racing driver to travel all over the world and experience the cultures of so many different places and I am very excited to be here in Moscow for this ePrix. I have had chance to explore the city and I can not wait to be racing past so many important buildings in history. I am extremely confident in my Virgin Racing car and I believe that as a team, we can definitely earn a podium here in Moscow. I am a very competitive driver and I enter every race knowing that I am fast and with a fast car, we can definitely win in Russia and enter the London finale on a high."

Alex Tai, Virgin Racing Team Principal, said, “When we started this very first Formula E season back in September in Beijing, Moscow was yet to be announced as a host city for the championship. I am so pleased Formula E chose to race here in Russia and that the Virgin Racing team can compete in this brilliant city. As a British team, of course we want to enter the London finale full of confidence and ready to show our home fans what we are capable of as a team and there is no better way to do that than with a victory in Moscow. I can not wait to see the Virgin Racing cars racing with this stunning backdrop of a city."

The ninth FIA Formula E race will start at 4pm local time (2pm GMT+2) and will be broadcast live on ITV4.

Cole Brauer becomes first American woman to race sailboat alone and nonstop around world

A CORUNA, Spain (AP) — Alone, Cole Brauer braved three oceans and the elements as she navigated her sailboat for months.

When she and her 40-foot (12.2-meter) sailboat arrived Thursday in A Coruna, Spain, the 29-year-old became the first American woman to race nonstop around the world by herself, traveling across about 30,000 miles (48,280 kilometers).

Brauer, all 5-foot-2 (1.6-meter) and 100 pounds (45.4 kilograms) of her, is one of more than a dozen sailors competing in the Global Solo Challenge. Brauer was the youngest and only woman in the group that set sail in October from A Coruna.

The starts were staggered. Brauer took off Oct. 29. As of Thursday, some in the field had dropped out of the race.

The race took Brauer south along the west coast of Africa, around the Cape of Good Hope and then eastward toward Australia. From there, she continued east where Brauer faced the unpredictable, treacherous and deadly Cape Horn at the southern tip of South America before continuing northeast across the Atlantic Ocean toward Spain.

The race took her 130 days to complete.

“This is really cool and so overwhelming in every sense of the word,” NBC News reported Brauer saying before drinking Champagne from her trophy Thursday while being celebrated by family and fans.

While Brauer is the first American woman to race around the globe alone by sea, she is not first woman to do so. Polish sailor Krystina Chojnowska-Liskiewicz finished her 401-day voyage around the globe on April 21, 1978, according to online sailing sites .

Kay Cottee of Australia was the first woman to achieve the feat nonstop, sailing off from Sydney Harbor in Australia in November 1987 and returning 189 days later.

The global voyage is not an easy one, even on a vessel with a full crew.

“Solo sailors, you have to be able to do everything," Brauer told the NBC “Today” show Thursday. "You need to be able to take care of yourself. You need to be able to get up, even when you’re so exhausted. And you have to be able to fix everything on the boat.”

Satellite communications allowed Brauer to stay in touch with her racing team and connect with fans on social media, where she posted videos from the race and her boat, “First Light.”

Along the way she encountered 30-foot (9.1-meter) waves that tossed her about the boat, according to NBC News.

She injured a rib and even gave herself an IV to fend off dehydration.

Sailing solo means not just being a skipper but a project manager, said Marco Nannini, the race's organizer. That means steering the vessel, making repairs, knowing the weather and keeping yourself healthy, he said.

“The biggest asset is your mental strength, not the physical one,” Nannini said. “Cole is showing everyone that.”

One of Brauer's social media posts from Dec. 8 showed her frustration.

“I haven’t really had the bandwidth to get into everything that’s been going on the past 48 hours, but the short version is the autopilot has been acting up again and I needed to replace some parts and do a rudder recalibration,” she wrote. “For once the light air is actually helping, but it’s been exhausting, and I’m sore and tired.”

“It’s all part of the journey, and I’m sure I’ll be feeling better once the work is done and I’ve gotten some sleep,” Brauer added. “But right now things are tough.”

But she's handled the tough, even though some in the sport believed it wouldn't be possible due to her gender and small frame.

“I push so much harder when someone’s like, ‘no, you can’t do that,’ or ‘you’re too small,’” Brauer said.

“It would be amazing if there was just one other girl that saw me and said ‘Oh, I can do that, too,'” she added.

This story has been updated to remove an erroneous reference to Brauer being the first American woman to circumnavigate the globe alone in a sailboat.

FIA FORMULA E CHAMPIONSHIP RACE REPORT ROUND NINE MOSCOW

2015-06-08 06:49:08

So the Formula e race results from Moscow would soon come in but last time out was in Berlin,  Lucas di Grassi seemed like he was coasting to victory, on his way to building up a 17-point race lead at the top of the driver standings. But soon after the race, di Grassi’s  AudiSport ABT car was disqualified for running with a modified front wing.

Today the world’s first formula electric racing series heads to Russia for Round 9 and the Brazilian will have to put the disappointment of Berlin behind him and quickly if he is to maintain his title challenge.

So after the excitement of Berline, di Grassi sees his 17-point lead at the top of the driver’s leader board disappear and the Brazilian is now third behind  Sébastien Buemi and bitter rival  Nelson Piquet Jr . he leads the championship with 8 and 10 points more respectively.

After eight races, the driver’s standings look like this:

Driver Standings

Nelson Piquet Jr - 103

Sébastien Buemi - 101

Lucas di Grassi - 93

Nicolas Prost - 78

Jerome D’Ambrosio - 77

Sam Bird - 68

Antonio Felix da Costa - 45

Jean-Eric Vergne - 40

Jaime Alguersuari - 30

Bruno Senna - 28

In the teams’ classification,  e.dams-Renault has made a significant step forward, the French team now has a 63 point lead over  Dragon Racing (179 to 116), with AudiSport ABT dropping into third after di Grassi’s disqualification. The full team standings is provided in the table below:

Team Standings

e.dams-Renault - 179

Dragon Racing - 116

Audi Sport ABT - 115

NEXTEV TCR - 107

Virgin Racing - 98

Andretti - 88

Amlin Aguri - 48

Mahindra Racing - 46

Ventur - 34

Trulli - 17

There are just two races will remain after the showdown in Moscow: a double-header in London on 27 th and 28th June in Battersea Park to determine the first ever Formula E champion. 

Just before the race started, the top three men in the championship – Nelson Piquet Jr., Sébastien Buemi and Lucas di Grassi - received the fan boost vote, providing them with an extra 30kW of power.

As we were about to start the race, Frenchman, Jean-Eric Vergne was on P1 (his third of the season), with Nelson Piquet Jr and Lucas di Grassi aiming to chase him down into the first corner in second and third respectively.

With the lights going green in Moscow, 20 electric racing cars hurtled down the track. Vergne spun his wheels giving Piquet Jr the advantage on the inside line and into the lead of the race. Out of the first corner it was Piquet, Vergne and di Grassi.

A brilliant move by Brit,  Justin Wilson saw him drive wide around  Ant Felix da Costa , pulling on some of his Indy Car experience.

As usual, energy management would play a crucial role – as it did in Berlin when Piquet managed to get a lap more than anyone else and managed to stay out whilst everyone else pitted which allowed him to go much faster in the second stint. Today would be no exception to this rule.

On lap 5, Antonio Luizzi  pitted his Trulli team car having started right at the back of the field.

Meanwhile, everyone else settled down early in to the race before business would inevitably pick up as we headed towards the car change and ultimately to the end of the race. All except Piquet who, on lap 7 managed to extend his lead at the front by a whole second more in just one lap. On this basis, the worst thing that could have happened to him was the deployment of the safety car.

Meanwhile da Costa and Trulli were having a mega fight. On two separate occasions the former had tried to challenge to latter for position at the chicane, only for Trulli to straight-line the chicane and maintain position. The  Amlin Aguri driving da Costa was clearly getting more frustrated with every passing lap as a result.

On lap 17, Piquet Jr, who had been using a huge amount of energy compared to most of his competitors whilst leading the race by more than three seconds, pitted to swap cars.

As the pitting process began, Senna  decided that it was time to part company with his rear wing and left it dumped in the centre of the track at T1 after losing the rear end.

Di Grassi managed to get out ahead of  Vergne  following their pit stops, meaning di Grassi was up ultimately into second place.

Buemi pitted from P1 after having been able to do an extra lap compared to most of the others meaning that wherever he was going to come out, he would have more energy to burn in the second stint. But inexplicably, he stayed 10-seconds longer in the pits than he need to meaning that he came out in P4. This one manoeuvre changed the complexion of the race.

Astonishingly, e.dams-Renault later admitted that they thought the pit stop was 68 seconds – not the 58 seconds that was the actual time. Both of their drivers did 68-seconds stops and consequently lost 10-seconds in the process.

On lap 25, it was announced that Alguesuari was to serve a drive-through penalty for going over the maximum power.

By lap 32, just 1.7-seconds separated Piquet Jr. and di Grassi, with four laps to go. However, they both still had a Fan Boost to deploy.

On lap 33, Jarno Trulli lost his rear wing after being hit at the hair pin by Duval who tried to mount his car. This also made Justin Wilson lose out.

So on the final lap Nelson Piquet it was Nelson Piquet Jr, Lucas di Grassi, Jean-Eric Vergne, Sébastien Buemi and  Nick Heidfeld holding the top five positions.

Unsurprisingly, Piquet Jr – who had absolutely dominated the race from the beginning after adopting an interesting energy strategy – crossed over the line first, followed by di Grassi. But it was the battle for third and fourth positions that proved to be the most exciting.

Further back it had all kicked off on the final few corners as Buemi and Heidfeld had miraculously managed to jump position over Vergne who was pushed down into fifth. Buemi had tried to challenge Vergne but his attack had been thwarted, but not to put off, Buemi had launched another attack at the chicane.

This time, Buemi ran straight on whilst Vergne had carried through the proper racing line. To his credit, Buemi had tried to hold back and allow Vergne back through to take his rightful position. However, for some reason, this wasn’t accepted by Vergne who held back.

After the race, Buemi was stripped of the position and given a penalty, reducing his overall position to 9 th . This moved Heidfeld into P3 with Vergne being awarded P4.
