The first Golden Globe Race was run in 1968. Nine started but only one finished, (Sir Robin Knox-Johnson.) Fifty years later the second GGR, in 2018 was organised by McIntyre Adventures in the spirit of 1968. Eighteen started, five finished. The next GGR (also organised by McIntyre Adventures) will start 4th Sept 2022. It is a solo, non-stop, yacht race around the World, starting and finishing in Les Sables-d’Olonne. Competitors will sail down the Atlantic, leaving Trindade Isle, Cape of Good Hope, Cape Leeuwin and Cape Horn to port. Then back up the Atlantic to the finish. There will be around thirty starters, simple strong old fashioned boats with long keels between 32' & 36', using traditional seamanship to keep them moving fast in a safe way. It is so exciting, satisfying and above all affordable for people like me. The race is a journey about finishing, Less than 100 people in the world have managed to do it so far. My Saltram Saga 36 is the best boat for the race. I am in it to win, I will do my best. Planning and preparation is my main goal from now to the start. The equipment used has to be from the original 1968 race. So GPS, Chart plotters, Electric autopilots, log's, wind instruments, iPhone, digital cameras, computers, cd players, pocket calculators, electronic clocks or watches, water makers and many more modern items are not allowed. Navigation is done in the old way with radio Direction finder and sextants. The first Golden Globe Race was run in 1968. Nine started but only one finished, (Sir Robin Knox-Johnson.)

Reáchtáladh an chéad Rás Golden Globe i 1968. Thosaigh naonúr ach níor chríochnaigh ach ceann amháin, (Sir Robin Knox-Johnson.) Caoga bliain ina dhiaidh sin d’eagraigh McIntyre Adventures an dara GGR, in 2018 de mheon 1968. Thosaigh ocht mbliana déag, chríochnaigh cúig cinn. Tosóidh an chéad GGR eile (arna eagrú ag McIntyre Adventures freisin) 4 Meán Fómhair 2022. Is rás luamh aonair, gan stad, ar fud an Domhain é, ag tosú agus ag críochnú i Les Sables-bliadhnaicheanOlonne. Seolfaidh iomaitheoirí síos an tAtlantach, ag fágáil Trindade Isle, Cape of Good Hope, Cape Leeuwin agus Cape Horn chun calafoirt. Ansin ar ais suas an tAtlantach go dtí an deireadh. Beidh timpeall tríocha tosaithe ann, báid shimplí láidre sean-aimseartha le keels fada idir 32 '& 36 ', ag baint úsáide as an mairnéalacht thraidisiúnta chun iad a choinneáil ag gluaiseacht go gasta ar bhealach sábháilte. Tá sé chomh corraitheach, sásúil agus thar aon rud eile ar phraghas réasúnta do dhaoine cosúil liomsa. Is turas é an rás faoi chríochnú, D’éirigh le níos lú ná 100 duine ar domhan é a dhéanamh go dtí seo. Is é mo Saltram Saga 36 an bád is fearr don rás. Táim ann chun an bua a fháil, déanfaidh mé mo dhícheall. Is é pleanáil agus ullmhúchán mo phríomhsprioc as seo go dtí an tús. Caithfidh an trealamh a úsáidtear a bheith ón rás bunaidh i 1968. Mar sin ní cheadaítear GPS, plotters Chart, Autopilots Electric, loganna, uirlisí gaoithe, iPhone, ceamaraí digiteacha, ríomhairí, seinnteoirí CD, áireamháin phóca, cloig nó uaireadóirí leictreonacha, déantúsóirí uisce agus go leor earraí níos nua-aimseartha. Déantar nascleanúint ar an seanbhealach le aimsitheoir Treorach raidió agus sextants. Reáchtáladh an chéad Rás Golden Globe i 1968.
