66Ryan Finn’s Solo Route d’Or

Ryan Finn, sailing solo aboard his 36-ft proa Jzerro, passed under the Golden Gate Bridge to finish an amazing adventure. Ryan sailed singlehanded from New York to San Francisco around Cape Horn on the 13,225-mile course called the 'Route d'Or', made famous by Gold Rush-era clipper ships.
