“Writing-up the adventure is half the fun of having it.”

One unique feature of the Figure 8 Voyage was that Randall posted daily reports from sea to his website that included high resolution photograhs and video of his surroundings.

These posts attracted a large and loyal following and are being used as the basis for upcoming books.

Sailor, Navigator, Lecturer

“It fascinates me how rich in history are these ancient, high latitude sailing routes, which are as wild, remote and demanding today as when first explored by the likes of Magellan and Frobisher 500 years ago.”

Randall is not only an avid explorer but a student of navigation, the history of sail and of the routes he pursues. Having over 80,000 sea miles, two transits of the Arctic’s Northwest Passge and two roundings of the Southern Ocean and Cape Horn means Randall is uniquely qualiified to speak on a wide range of oceanic topics.

Bring Randall in as a guest lecturer for your students and travelers.

Randall’s lecture series can focus on either high latitude region and ranges from the history of exploration to the natural environment.
