伊拉克战争的老兵罗尼·辛普森(Ronnie Simpson)正在准备重新尝试2027年全球独航挑战, Portland sailor Ronnie Simpson, a veteran of the Iraq War, is preparing to reattempt the 2027 Global Solo Challenge, a solo around-the-world sailing race, after nearly dying in February 2024 when a storm severely damaged his boat 700 miles off Argentina. 在经历了100多天的极端条件、与世隔绝和剥夺睡眠之后,他获救,现在计划再次从波特兰乘他的40级船Koloa Maoli上航行。 After enduring over 100 days of extreme conditions, isolation, and sleep deprivation, he was rescued and now plans to sail again from Portland aboard his Class 40 boat, Koloa Maoli. 该赛事持续四至九个月,要求保持警觉、精神恢复力和依赖太阳能自动驾驶,尽量减少人类接触和冷冻食物。 The race, lasting four to nine months, demands constant vigilance, mental resilience, and reliance on solar-powered autopilot, with minimal human contact and freeze-dried food. 辛普森将这段经历描述为“二型乐趣” — — 瞬间颇有收获,但大有裨益 — — 并将这场比赛视为个人赎罪和生存的旅程。 Simpson describes the experience as “type 2 fun”—painful in the moment but deeply rewarding—and sees the race as a journey of personal redemption and survival.
