> Rather than head south from europe and left towards asia, you turn right towards the south pacific. Yes, but people have gone the "backwards" way as well: > The oldest person to sail around the world singlehandedly and non-stop is Bill Hatfield (Australia, b. 14 January 1939), who was aged 81 years 39 days when he sailed into The Spit on Australia's Gold Coast on 22 February 2020. He embarked on his eight-month (295-day) solo circumnavigation – on the more challenging westerly route, against the prevailing winds – on 8 June 2019 in his 11.5-m (38-ft) yacht L'Eau Commotion. * https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/oldest-pe... * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Hatfield |
