About

In June 2012, I will be taking part in a solo, non-stop, unassisted race to Hawaii aboard my Wilderness 30 named Domino. The Singlehanded Transpac has been described by some as a "A bug light for weirdos". Follow me and my fellow “bug light weirdos” as we prepare our boats and ourselves for the downwind run to Hawaii.

Busy night with squalls. Made some miles. 173 left to go. I can’t wait! The mainsail is no longer being a bitch. It is the windvane’s turn.

155 DTF. I’d like to make it tomorrow, but realistically it looks like Sunday morning. Last night was challenging. Three squalls hit back to back to back. Before the first one hit, I was flying everything: the main had one reef and the twins with up. A squall came up from behind and changed up the
wind direction. So, I dropped the twins and the main and then the squall passed and I needed to get everything up again. This happened 3 times. Haven’t slept well because of the conditions out here. I’m getting closer to land and the shelf under the ocean is causing bumpy, rolling waters. I’m just chugging along. See you soon! ~Adam
