0:00.0	Hey, you're listening to On the Wind, the podcast about offshore sailing, with your host, Andy Schell.
0:12.4	I was, what, at least four weeks ahead of Mattisier.
0:17.0	And by Cape Horn, three weeks ahead.
0:19.1	So he didn't gain much.
0:20.7	And he wasn't going to catch me if I kept on.
0:22.7	That was Sir Robin Knox Johnston.

0:28.5	where I interview sailors from all walks of life from around the world
