Ken Read of North Sails On His Experience Racing the Jeanneau Sun Fast 3300
World-renowned sailor, and North Sails President Ken Read, reflects on his experience racing offshore aboard the Jeanneau Sun Fast 3300 in the double-handed division of the 2020 Fort Lauderdale to Key West Race. Take a look back at this first major race for the Sun Fast 3300 here in North America.
"Yesterday was a great experience where we could ramp the thing up on edge. In a 33 foot boat you're going 12-13 knots in 20 knots of breeze. We weren't even trying yet. So it's fun."
This is the first of many races to come for S/V Alchemist, and all to promote double-handed offshore racing.
"I have to admit I'm having fun with it it. It takes me back to my roots of doing a little bit of everything on a boat."
