Ian Herbert-Jones is sailing his 35-foot long sailing boat Puffin around the world solo in the 2022 Golden Globe Race. Technology is the same as back in 1969 when sailor Robin Knox-Johnston won the first race and if anything fails, Ian could be out of the race or even lose contact with race control and that would be fatal.
Victron Energy is providing the equipment for the race and Chris Dobson from UK Marine Electronics Ltd is donating his time to build it all.
