[Public-list] Circumnavigation Plans

[Sam Stone]

Check out http://www.capehorn.com/index.html The dvd _With Jean-du-Sud 
Around the World_ is quite good. Yves Gelinas attempted what you are 
talking about.

Although still in great shape, the Alberg does require some attention. The chainplates need to be reattached or replaced and I am very interested in watertight bulkheads for added bouyancy if something were to go wrong. I also want to strenghten the mast set up so it would be more apt to handle the forties, I'm considering extra shrouds, a double spreader rig, and an inner forestay. The large glass panels on the aft coach roof seem like they could also use a bit of beefing up. At first sight she seems to be a great boat. Any thoughts or suggestions on the matter would be invaluable. There were only two boats in the marina to survive Hurricane Katrina; luckily enough, I managed to snag this one!
