My "TEN" micro yacht

Well folks it’s all official now. I have started building my “TEN” :)
Many people thinks it’s crazy, but many more people love the idea and would probably do it themselves if they could. The idea of sailing long distances in a ten foot (3m) micro yacht will only appeal to the very adventurous and people that are fascinated by extreme sports and challenges.
We have also created a dedicated site for this challenge, called SaToSa which stands for “South Africa To South Africa” the concept being that we will do something similar to the Jester Challenge, but for micro yachts. We believe that a race around the world in a micro yacht is definitely do-able and it is simply a matter of time before somebody actually goes and does it.
Sven Yrvind is obviously the master guru in this field and we applaud the good work he does. Roger Taylor has done some fantastic sailing and of course Webb Chiles is at sea at the moment showing us how it’s done!
I will post regular updates and pictures and videos of the build. Please go to the different sites – like us – join us – follow us – support us – WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT PLEASE !!!
