Steve Allan's article about Matt Rutherford and his solo, non-stop circumnavigation of the Americas.

Matt Rutherford in Good Old Boat Magazine Sept 2012

Check out Steve Allan’s excellent Sailor Profile article, “A Sailor, a boat, and a quest: Matt Rutherford’s most excellent vertical circumnavigation” on page 43 of the Sept/Oct 2012 issue of Good Old Boat Magazine. Steve’s story and Andy Schell’s article in the Sept 2012 issue of SAIL  Magazine compliment each other nicely. You’ll learn new information from both.
