Blue Water Medal Presented to Kirsten Neuschäfer as CCA Honors Top 2023 Ocean Sailors
The 101-year-old Cruising Club of America presented its annual awards to international and U.S. ocean sailors

(NEW YORK, March 12, 2023)—The 2023 Cruising Club of America (CCA) awards ceremony was held at the New York Yacht Club on Friday, March 1, highlighted by the presentation of the Blue Water Medal to solo round-the-world sailor Kirsten Neuschäfer. The prestigious Medal was first awarded by the CCA at the Club’s first annual meeting in 1923.

Neuschäfer, of Port Elizabeth, South Africa, received the Blue Water Medal from Commodore Jay Gowell in recognition of her victory in the 2022 Golden Globe Race, a 235-day solo circumnavigation in which she was the first of three finishers among 17 original starters. The race restricts sailors to the use of sailboats and technology that was available when the race was first held, in 1968.

Self-effacing in her remarks, Neuschäfer said, “It’s a singlehanded race, but many, many people help” and spent most of her speech giving credit to others. She said, “On a very philosophical level, I learned a lot, and it was truly a voyage of collaboration,” then added, “It’s one of those experiences you keep on doing for a while, and the train hasn’t ended.”

The Code 55 is the perfect choice to compliment the Roller furling jib, creating a brilliant set of headsails to drive the boat in winds forward of the beam and beyond the beam in stronger breeze.

Sails tested on a beautiful day on Table Bay to showoff the perfect shape of the seamless 3Di sails.
