Yes, but I notice that there is no footage from rounding the horn, which I expected as much for verification purposes, as for point of interest footage.
Just to clarify, Lisa Clayton was the first British woman to sail single-handed non-stop around the world in 1995. Kaye Cottee was the first woman from any country, in 1988, to sale single-handed non-stop around the world. Both women did a circumnavigation of the world via the five Great Capes. It was a requirement to do the five Capes back then but since then the World Sailing Speed Record Council allows only four Great Capes to constitute sailing around the world. Sailing around the world can be a shorter distance than circumnavigating the world.
Loved every minute. What an amazing lady. Can’t find anything else about her online so will read her book. Any suggestions on what sailing documentary to watch next? Preferably solo + self recorded videos like this. So brave
This is an incredible record. Just imagine in a 36hr span she capsized 7 times, mentioning the boat completely rotated twice... Calmly saying the winds "dropped" to 49knts. Insane stuff.
I honestly find that hard to believe, She would have been dismasted! I’m not trying to be an ass it’s just truly difficult to roll a blue water yacht through 360.
@@zerofox7347 I suspect that her capsize meant that her mast went horizontal and touched the sea. 360 rotation in the vertical plane with a blue water keel yacht is very unlikely. Maybe she did involuntary 360 in the horizontal plane?
Amazing Lisa Clayton!!! This is my 1st tine hearing about her story! I have zero doubt that she Solo sailed around the world... She went thru things fully crew'd vessel couldn't handle,nor come out of!! She's quite an awesome woman. I want to know more regarding this story of Lisa.... Thanks for posting this. Will you post more videos about sailing? Thanks for sharing her life with us grateful for the wisdom ✌🏼💗😊❣️ PS, I have no doubt in my mind Lisa sailed that vessel round the world alone . Just her an her vessel her video recorder an the Ocean .. She's the 1st woman who sailed round the world an ppl wanna cast doubt. An she has video proof...!! Lisa Clayton is my hero ✌🏼💗😊❣️ Donna Kawana from Chesapeake Bay Maryland
Kay Cottee AO is an Australian sailor, who was the first woman to perform a single-handed, non-stop and unassisted circumnavigation of the world. She performed this feat in 1988 in her 37 feet yacht Blackmores First Lady, taking 189 days.
Yes it was Kay Cottee that was the first woman to sail around the world. Her yacht is on display at Sydney’s Power House Museum Australia. She planned for every eventuality and even took a mast repair kit and her mast did sustain severe damage apparently at one stage. Things even back in the 1980s we’re not as high tech as they are now. Things have come such a long way but sailing still involves all the effort and knowledge.These swinging stoves and battery chargers you hang over the back just were not around in the 1980s. And as pointed out here it takes a boat and some funds. Not many women solo sail anywhere much and there are allegations women are often harassed. I can’t imagine having to face pirates as a woman but it is great many women are sailing. Let us hope there are more.
Your brain is out of Sync, I wonder if I can make my iPhone record or Mac edit to look like old film . What is that a old 16 mini hand held camera. Or one of those big camcorders. The wave shots look bad ass in old footage , it puts a added fright in its step
10:33 Christ, what kind of out-of-touch geezer of a sound editor was allowed, in 1995, to put 60s bloody surf music -already 30 years out of date- onto this footage...and believe it or not, the choice of music gets even bloody worse at 24:55...he must have thought he was being hip...it's just appalling. Had she been male, no one would have questioned her feat, but the Misogynist Establishment Sailing Geezers got their noses out of joint that she was successful. Damned impressive woman, must do further reading on her.
Whatt?? They crack heads on any men attempts at this all the time and have caught cheaters. Not to mention A WOMAN had already made the claim from Australia years ahead of her. So who's the sexist again?? Stupid comments like your's all over the web anymore.
I remember this and the controversy at the time. Darn shame about the sound. It is really only mono and not stereo. Left channel is ok'ish. Only thing coming from right channel is screechy muffled and horrible. Could not make out anything at all from the right and it just distracted from the left. So was better to remove and cut out the right channel so could at least hear it decently.
I want to watch this but the audio is so bad! :(. Left channel only plus a constant high pitch ringing in both channels. I may have to download it and do some filtering myself
Does Peter Harding have family in Norway? Hans Harding owns a lifeboat yard in Norway. Lifeboats need to meet pretty harsh qualifications, try a drop into the ocean.
3 months, brand new boat, rusting everywhere already. I'll stick to my lovely plastic boats. I know steel would give great peace of mind at sea, but all that rust would drive me bonkers day and night.
Rust never sleeps - sailors say. But, if you ever hit anything hard (or semi hard, like a whale), you'd be damn glad you were in a steel boat. Great choice of a boat for the kind of journey this lady departed on.
It sounded fishy to me as well. You would be very lucky indeed, to have your rig standing, most certainly with any sails up. The forces during a 360 roll would be tremendous, both inside and out.
I don't doubt she made the voyage but when she jumped of the boat at the end she didn't show any signs of sea legs...8 hours at sea will produce it and 8 months is worse.
She must have used a terrible paint system. There so much rust on a new hull? You don’t see that these days on a well kept steel yacht, Even one that’s constantly cruising.
Fantastic footage of a tremendous accomplishment. What a woman; what a sailor!
Yes, but I notice that there is no footage from rounding the horn, which I expected as much for verification purposes, as for point of interest footage.
Beautiful sailing episode filming, thanks for sharing. What a beautiful sailing experience and stories around the world ⛵️ 🌎

which means that there are two of us with the same tag....
great spirit, great soul, beautiful mood, and so simple, congrats
Amazing voyage. Thanks for posting.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Courage, respect for the sea, and advanced seamanship. What a sailor.
Hat off to this outrageously brave woman.
A story of a hero. What a shame she no longer among us. RIP and your story/dream will be there forever.
Has she passed away????
She is alive
Thanks for this
Very smart capable beautiful woman
What else?!
@@voornaam3191 not sure what you mean . But would certainly like to sail with her who wouldn’t
Well... it might not have changed her, but it sure as heck would have changed ME!
Would be great to meet her . Just sold my classic yacht to Take on a smaller one . Love to sail with her
Pretty cool. What an accomplishment!!
Top respect, what a girl.
Respect Lisa . You have proven you can do it.
it appears she didn't even emblazen her ship with ads for her instagram or youtube as so many others seem to do.

The high pitch ringing has me running away from this video!
The out of sync sound tracks do not do justice to this wonderful achievement. Well done on a wonderful adventure.
I don't understand the out of sync sound track? The file I uploaded is in sync, it's something UA-cam has done to the file! It's so annoying!!!

Where's the boat now?
Does Peter Harding have family in Norway? Hans Harding owns a lifeboat yard in Norway. Lifeboats need to meet pretty harsh qualifications, try a drop into the ocean.

Yeah I noticed the rust and thought similar
Rust never sleeps - sailors say. But, if you ever hit anything hard (or semi hard, like a whale), you'd be damn glad you were in a steel boat. Great choice of a boat for the kind of journey this lady departed on.
Capsized 7 times, once 360??? Next day cooking, all pots & pans still in place. Idk ?
Yes that doesn't make sense, knock down but no way capsized and not demasted?? Steering vane intact and all outside gear no damage.
It sounded fishy to me as well. You would be very lucky indeed, to have your rig standing, most certainly with any sails up. The forces during a 360 roll would be tremendous, both inside and out.
Caught that too. Very questionable!!
Speaking as one who has actually been pitchpoled that's actually correct 👌 😊
I don't doubt she made the voyage but when she jumped of the boat at the end she didn't show any signs of sea legs...8 hours at sea will produce it and 8 months is worse.
After a long'ish trip my legs are fine, but closing my eyes in the shower is a problem
@@andyb.1026 8 months is a bit of a stretch though...I wasn't doubting her , I was amazed.
Strong woman, that's why.
Watch Robin Knox Johnson, after 9 months, steady as could be 😊😊😊
After our last passage of 26 days, my girlfriend and I hopped onto the dock and walked around with no issues at all.
Mystery Biscuits!!!
What design was the boat?
She must have used a terrible paint system. There so much rust on a new hull? You don’t see that these days on a well kept steel yacht, Even one that’s constantly cruising.
Seems they put emphasis on 90 % preparation; 10% on terrible noxious steel cover. What a balance of temper & technical patience !
Some folks are only happy when they find some minor pint to whine about 😂😅😮
40.? Ego? Go slow and enjoy the trip
I know nothing about sailing. Why is she pulling a long rope in the water behind her? I've seen this before. TIA.
Line has small propeller attached to a generator for electrical power
A long line trailing behind the boat helps as a drag anchor to slow it down and keep it going in the right direction
@@bojangles8837 Thank you.
@@robertherrmann4823 Thank you.
@@robertherrmann4823 Wrong
Sailing aroumd the world 97% being able to afford the boat, expenses and supplies and 3 % skill easily picked up along the way
Very inappropriate musical accompaniment. Absolutely BIZARRE.
It's about real sailing, not a Holywood fantasy 😅😂😮
Bad paint jobb. GRP lighter and better? GGR is happening
I guess you can concentrate on that when you build your own boat and sail it single handed around the world.
Thank goodness she proved to be useless within the first few seconds of the video. Saved me a lot of time
Useless???
@@eleanorchapple8772 Useless???
Tos ser 😊
Did you say she wants to be the FIRST woman to sail solo non stop around the world ? That has already been done
Thats what I thought ,,
First British woman. The first was Australian.
