Wow.
Refused entry to the harbour.
Not the Bermuda I remember.

Subject: Stus-List Rescue at sea.
I’m posting this thread because there may those amongst the list that
will find this interesting.
This post is somewhat C&C related because the subject of the video
upgraded his boat near mine. He just did his upgrades with much more
alacrity.
Kim is an acquaintance of mine, lives in the same town and has attended
more than one of our annual Sock Burning Parties. I’ve assisted him with
some of his projects. Prior to his setting sail for Bermuda, I worked
along with another very experience offshore sailor (in the yard
repainting his Valiant 42 with triple spreader carbon rig) to get him
prepped and sorted away. The Valiant owner leant Kim his life raft.
Having raced to Bermuda in the past Kim was keen for any insights that I
could impart. I told him to stay away from the Swizzle Inn rum swizzles
and take the round-abouts in a clock-wise direction...
I don’t have any insights or knowledge of events other than what is
portrayed in the video and I’m not going to speculate.
This voyage was a long-term dream of Kim’s. His boat is a mid-to-late
80’s Jeanneau, around 35 feet.
