Bermuda 1-2 solo sailing on J/111 BLUR

I needed a personal challenge. Sailing solo from Newport, RI, to Bermuda, was definitely out of my comfort zone, and I wasn't sure if it was a good idea. My goal was to get there in one piece and to find out what happens in my head when I'm alone in the ocean. It was an amazing experience and I hope to do more solo sailing/racing.

And upwind?
Offshore alone with an open transom.
Joy to watch! Great video again. Looking forward to the next one.
What type of mini dodger is that? love the idea!
Made it myself. More photos if you scroll down here www.blur.se/2015/07/24/j111-blur³-offshore-mode/
Great result and video
Thanks. Slowly gearing up to the crazy projects you're involved in 😀
Awesome footage Peter Do you know any sailors in Bermuda for hire or anyone making the trip back to the states anytime soon? Looking to experience this trip.
5:12 is that kicker you are trying to loose ? Or main sheet is just strange to see it coming from the cockpit (to me)
Yup, it’s the kicker. Main sheet is on the cockpit floor, but much harder to work after a broach.
What they're doing is easing on the puffs and then tightening to get the boat to surf up on the waves. Notice the boat to the left which almost broaches. Helm is playing real close to a major jibe but the wind is not switching enough to cause that kind of surprise so he can get away with it.
Nice crew work! Everyone know their job….very little talk and no yelling!
Great video! Those choices of going with the kite versus playing it safe are the hardest! Looks like you still did well though. Great job!
hi there, nice video! was the mast modified? looks longer than in other 750 videos
Nope, it's the standard Open 7.50 wing mast.
Loving that surfing footage! what a blast!
Full main. Bold move.
The point of sailing so close to obstacles??
Nice video, but one question came to mind. Have you ever considered attaching your harness in the middle of the boat, so that you can not fall overboard. Now if you fall overboard you will potentially have a slow and painful death?
I usually clip in to windward with a short tether.
Boner town
Grat!
Häftig segling! snyggt seglat
Nice Petter and Mattias: So enjoyed sailing against you. the video brings back good memories and I laughed when I saw the caption "and another one". See you in June for the next thrash to the onion patch
Lovely sailing. Thanks for sharing it Peter.
what boat?
It's an Open 7.50 www.blur.se/2022/04/21/blur-v-ar-en-open-7-50/
Nice video and you picked a good sound track as well.
Lots of use for the Code 0 sail, is it the Helix sail and therefore tacked to the end of the sprit?
Yes, it's the newer Code 0 Helix. Awesome sail.
Thank you motorboat even though you have right of way 👌🏼
This is great. She looks like she's a blast to sail.
A blast. And a handful sometimes 🤣
How is it possible that there are boats to pass (like they are standing still) downwind. Is the boat really slow upwind?
Different classes. Different start times. Also, several laps around the same marks.
Downwind…. My goodness.
Great footage, well done
Nice!
nice hat
Great sleigh ride.
Why is your main outhaul so tight?
Wow Peter, Melbourne, city of my dreams... Tough race, tough boat, tough crew. Thank you so much for sharing this!!!!
Melbourne is my new favourite city and I hope I have the chance to get back there soon.
Awesome work Peter 🙂
Great music pieces
Is the main boat dragging the other one
such a nice video!
I always thought the unwritten rule was that Jboats names started with a J
Mainsheet hit the windward mark. You should have done penalty turns.
great video
Great footage, perfect camera angles and a soundtrack as smooth as the sea at 2:35. The usual stuff from Blur, in other words! Thanks for taking us along on the journey and congrats on this great achievement!
Nice boat, experienced skipper, beautiful images, WELL DONE !
8:05 pretty interesting , you guys didn’t consider broad reaching for more speed and stable hike ? Or maybe the J doesn’t need that ? I sail a seascape 27 on that track it would have been safer to broad roach and jibe if necessary to compensate. Thanks for the videos.
At the time we were not confident putting up the A5. We had 40 knots in the gusts and most boats around had problems with their spinnakers. We’ve since re-designed tha A5/A6 and made it fractional. Next time in similar conditions we’ll have one up 😀
Vackert!
You make soloing the 111 look easy!
The nice thing is the J/111 was designed for minimal crew, no excuse for the years pf experience though
Well done Peter, fantastic achievement, you must be really pleased. And what was the verdict afterwards - never again - or now that you have had time to dwell on it, perhaps, maybe again.
I said before the race, "I hope I hate this" since that would have made my life easier. But I loved it and would like to do it again. Sadly, the next edition in 2025 is at the same time as Transpac, which has been at the top of the bucket list for a while.
Nicely done Peter. Brings back lots of memories of the race. The start, the fog, the GS and the joy of the finish. Great to meet you and hope to see you on the race course next year - Phil sv Fearless
Thank you so much for helping out and inspiring me along the way. People like you are the reason I love solo and shorthanded sailing. I'll reach out when I'm back in the US:
Congrats Peter!! What a nice ride, hope to see you in mediterranean waters!
👏👏👏👏👏
