Lose the music.
Excellent video
Great movie Whitall,
Thanks Peter! Hope you are doing well. Heading out again Nov. 8.
Wow, and then you went on to become a Special Counsel. Amazing!! :)
What nav equipment did you add? What did you do to the electrical system to handle it. I just bought a ten and I’m gonna do the solo Newport Bermuda race
Hi John, I went with one Group 31 AGM and group 24 starting battery, charged via 150 watts of solar. Small Garmin chartplotter stayed off most of the time, AIS stays on. Make sure your forestay attachments are in good shape.
That took guts. I wouldn't have sailed my 10 in Lake Erie alone, let alone to Hawaii.
Tens are built a bit light for offshore , but great boats!
Just watched again.....SO cool! Thanks Whitall! :-)
Watching you surviving through those windy, squally, damp days and nights and hearing you saying that you were freezing makes me think that my life is not so bad after all. Thanks for sharing a great video. I enjoyed it.
you probably dont give a damn but does any of you know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my account password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Jordan Rodney instablaster :)
@Nicolas Torin thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and Im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Nicolas Torin it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thanks so much, you really help me out !
@Jordan Rodney You are welcome :D
Some great footage but why did you have to moan so much?
good job
@ 1:25 Old guy says "Epic Failure!" Teens riot in streets.. film at 11
so you are Francis Stokes son? Neat.
Epic adventure. Well done. Thanks for sharing
Very Nice. Greetings Victoria (Victoire 933) also Ostar 1980.
The Great Whitall Stokes! Following in dad's footsteps?
Hey Lisa, Always fun to see you pop up! You coming back again with Jim this Summer?
I enjoyed watching your video. I used to have a 27 footer that I cruised and raced all over southern California, often single or short-handed. I'm impressed with your skills; beating upwind day after day in strong winds is tough work. Your video makes me want get out there and sail again!
Michiel Besseling is my instructor. I too was impressed with your skills. Hope to someday do what your doing!
those squalls sucked on the way home too !
had to watch this again....good times !!!
Hi Carlos, it's the one off of Baja!
It is in the caribbean island or Baja California Island?
Hi Maty, it's a Raymarine X5. There's a cover on the drive arm to keep water off.
very well done. could not tell how many days it took. Fast boat!!!! I do not race but cruise and the thought of solo offshore putting up a chute at 20 knots makes me dry in the mouth.
Whitall, You've done a lot to be proud of! Good luck in the future too!
hey whittall, that was great !!! loved it. hope all is well. cheers, lisa quanci (GB return crew)
nice jury rig! Great videos!
Wish I could have gone along for this ride. That weekend was gnarly!
