Risen From The Dead
We promised a big announcement for the US solo racing scene today, and we’re extremely happy to pass word along that long time supporter and fan of Sailing Anarchy Brad Van Liew is throwing his hat back into the solo round-the-world racing scene. He’ll do it in the Eco 60 Class with the race where he made his name; formerly the BOC, then the Around Alone, and now the Velux 5 Oceans. Brad has proven to be one of a tiny handful of Americans to truly succeed in the solo game, as well as one of an even smaller group to garner significant US and international media attention while doing it. To make it even more interesting, we hear that there may be a network TV deal in the mix with the backing of a major Hollywood studio.
