Speed and Simplicity by Alex Lear
Kip Stone and Ryan Finn sat at the Freeport Cafe last Thursday, enjoying their last cooked meal before sailing out of Harraseeket Harbor that afternoon, catching some wind and not looking back until they arrive in St. Malo, France, 12 days and 3,000 miles later.

Sailing Anarchy
The Struggle by Merfyn Owen
(To read all the TJV reports by Merf, visit the link below and click on 'General'). "It's twenty four hours since we left the French (nee Breton) port of Lorient and on the port bow I can already see the lights of the Spanish coast. We've covered some three hundred miles in this time, the first sixteen of these were incredibly wet, pretty cold and very exhilarating.

The Daily Sail
Lia Ditton interviews Kip Stone
Fair headed with long blond eyelashes, I would describe Kip as good looking. Riding down the dock at full pelt on his bicycle, there is no doubt he is fit. Kip jams on the brakes and his front wheel grinds to a halt beside me. He cackles an unexpectedly deep and resonant laughter. Clambering over the guard rail of his Open 50 Artforms, we head for the nav station where I get the opportunity to meet Kip Stone.

Miles to go Before I Sleep by Tim Zimmermann
... Managing sleep deprivation is a critical skill in the solo-sailing racing game, and Harris—who finished second to Stone after another week of difficult conditions—knew he was risking a meltdown with his mad dash for the lead. Four months before the Transat, he had been to see Dr. Claudio Stampi, the 51-year-old sole proprietor of the Newton, Massachusetts-based Chronobiology Research Institute...
