On November 18, 2012, Chinese yachtsman Guo Chang embarked on a solo circumnavigation of the globe in a Class40yacht. A month ago, the wind gusts reached 40 knots while crossing the Indian Ocean. According to Chan, the boat could have capsized at any moment. But, fortunately, the wind had abated in early March. You can follow Chang's adventures on his official website.
