Inspired by the finishing race video, let's post some unedited videos of our experiences!

I'll go first.

Must of been week 2, after an unusually bad broach I had lost my contacts and recorded this video entry.

Thanks Jackie!

Had some time this morning to do a very rough cut of my SHTP start.

It's sooo true! But please share your videos. I find I can get perspective of the size of the waves as it compares to one's rigging and boat size, like seeing waves above the spreaders. I totally get it. I find the videos not only entertaining, but inspirational and educational as well.
Sounds like it was a rough race and look forward to the stories that any competitor wishes to share here on this site which I frequently stalk with the hope of one day doing the race myself (2018?). For now you guys are my inspiration. Thanks!

Steevee - I want to do the 2018 race as well but man I'm worried about making it to the starting line! Last year someone, on here, said that 20 months is not a lot of time to get ready and I didn't fully appreciate that comment till I bought my boat and started working on it. I swear the thing hates the water and keeps breaking to spite me.

Oh Man. How'd I miss these videos! Just wonderful.
I especially liked the start "Hawaii, what the fuck was I thinking". CLASSIC!

Margie when I undelete your post I can see the video just fine -- maybe blocked by your own browser or something? Can you see the 3BF video in my post #11?

post the vimeo url and people can cut and past it into their own server. That's what I do. Looking forward to seeing your video. Sorry about Haunani.

Great video Margie! Got any moar? I'm not ready to let go of the experience yet.

I'll post more when I get my hands on a functional laptop, at least until my finish. I'll spare ya'll my return trip where I "learned" tof play my ukelali, I think the lyrics when somethink like this: "Brett... the buck naked Sailor!..... he dances in the rain, under the rainbows!"

Amazing how hot it was until about 135W.

Hey, Brett! Do you have any more impromptu videos? I have sent this one to everyone I know.
