Living legend, yet still humble and candidly excited. It must be fantastic to sail with him.

Totally agree
This guy exudes inspirational leadership.
Superb, loved his energy and how he would inspire confidence in the crew. Interesting to read his other sailing adventures online too.
Great interview. Can tell how stoked he was!

Hello Glitch, how are you doing there on your perch? Everything is fine here in Florianopolis, just like another new day, another new chick... This start of Fastanet 2023 was electrifying. How crazy Larsen is about speed, we already know, but I would like to hear the testimony of the owner of the cat, because a different kind of mental nut, who rips up his insurance policy for a passion for sailing. What was that? Greetings.
Wonderful summary of pushing the limits and the importance of communications and understanding across the entire crew. The importance also of having only brief moments to act before the situation changes.................... great video.
A charismatic man with a dazzling smile, I'm so proud of this Australian talent. Just think he started off playing with boats as a child on a dam in country Victoria (so his mum says with pride), look how far this amazing, humble man has come.

Freaking Awesome, I LOVE this type of sailing/racing.
Love the passion and determination to push to the limits..!! I need to get back into racing after watching this interview.. Enjoy all..⛵️⛵️😎😎
Paul really is one of the nicest humans you could ever meet.
I’m sharing the excitement 👍🏻
Hats off….clearly a boat not designed for this sailing program!
What a fantastic interview, ‘situationally aware’ I bet you are in that breeze and sea. Great result…

Full main and keeping up with the big boys in those conditions...words fail..
A true skipper , calm cool and will be a legend of true speech ,no bull sh1t and seems give a Castlemaine 4xxx . Good on yur sport . Their not bad at cricket , as long as the wind is not blowing ?
Just awesome and 30 tonnes!! I just wish he could get enough backing for sail rocket 2.
Anti dive planes/strips on the upper bows would help fight off the tendency to dig in aswell as greater depth at the bow..
Boat!! There is nothing more exciting than pushing a big sailboat to the limit...
Awesome guy. He needs a good dentist though

If he cared about that, I'm guessing he would have 'addressed it' by now...

hey philip, at least he can still do something about it whereas you can not do anything about your mother drinking all the beer in the village while she was pregnant with you.
