Ed Gillet Youtube Find

I spotted this on Youtube today. It's a TV interview with Ed Gillet who kayaked from California to Hawai. Late 80's so no GoPro footage. Enjoy!

Thanks for that. Excellent!

To have completed this trip, 64 days in the back cockpit of a standard double kayak across the Pacific Ocean, navigating by sextant to within one mile, is just stunning. Did have waterproof sight reduction tables and almanac? Brilliant.
