The Thermopylae Club is pleased to invite all BCA members to join American sailor, Randall Reeves, for a single-handed, “Figure 8” voyage around the Americas and Antarctica on Wednesday, March 10.
Randall departed San Francisco aboard Moli in 2018 and returned there one year later, having crossed every ocean, circumnavigating Antarctica, twice rounding Cape Horn and transiting the Northwest Passage in a continuous 40,000nm double loop of the globe.
Moli is a 13m aluminum cutter-rigged sloop, designed to make long ocean passages, particularly in high latitudes. Formerly known as Taonui, when owned by BCA honorary members Tony & Coryn Gooch, she made history in 2002-2003 when Tony became the first person to complete a solo, nonstop circumnavigation from a North American west coast port.
Randall’s achievement is also a “first” for the history books; he has been recognized by the Ocean Cruising Club and the Cruising Club of North America for his remarkable voyage.
