"The human side of this race".. Airlie Beach, Australia, Leg 4/8

Our favorite ocean sailor joins us from Airlie Beach, Australia, almost halfway around the world from race start in England last September! Deets: Today Andrew answers some great questions from members of the Climb Aboard Andrew's Adventure Facebook group - thank you Ben, Alexandra, Ian and Danelle! Questions include: ~"We keep hearing about the cockpit being swamped. Why does everything down below not get swamped, how do you protect things like computer equipment and the galley?" ~"What would you say to people that are in situations where it seems like they can't continue with a dream, putting "their" life aside to take care of someone e.g. parents with dementia? How to listen to truth and potential in the midst of hardness?" ~"Have you had any fearful moments yourself where shit went so far sideways you weren't sure what to do next? Also, can you explain what the penalty for equipment damage is all about?" ~"What's the daily routine? How does the day start, does the team debrief? How often?" ~"What's it like being away from your loved ones for so long?" Enjoy the roundup of this most recent leg of Andrew Moss's experience competing in the Clipper Round the World Race!
