You are continually fighting the boat, managing sail plans, trying to get the boat to sail as quickly as possible,&#8221; he explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Capetonian already has plans to show his international teammates the best of his home city, including a hike up Table Mountain, wine tasting in Constantia Valley, and a visit to local brewery Aegir Project.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-novice-tackles-ocean-crossing\"><strong>Novice tackles ocean crossing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the South African contingent is 28-year-old marine scientist Nina Faure Beaulieu from Cape Town, who stepped aboard her yacht in Uruguay as a complete sailing beginner. She&#8217;ll be sharing the incredible experience with her mother Nathalie, who is competing on the same team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m quite nervous. I think when I arrive and see Table Mountain, and feeling the accomplishment of an ocean crossing, it will just feel incredible,&#8221; said Nina before the race start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other South Africans making the journey home include 20-year-old student Samuel Fourie from Pretoria, who is attempting the full circumnavigation, and attorney Jakes van Strijp, 62, from Emelo, sailing alongside his daughter Babra Ann, 34, a business development manager from Sandton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"900\" data-attachment-id=\"283893\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/home-at-last-six-south-africans-dock-in-cape-town-after-epic-atlantic-crossing\/clipper3_78867-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,900\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"clipper3_78867\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1-1024x768.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1.jpg\" alt=\"Nina and her Mum Nathalie on board Power of Seattle Sports\u00a0\" class=\"wp-image-283893\" srcset=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/clipper3_78867-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Nina and her Mum Nathalie on board Power of Seattle Sports&nbsp;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-to-expect\"><strong>What to expect<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Race Director Dale Smyth described this leg as &#8220;nothing short of phenomenal,&#8221; with teams experiencing relentless waves and cold, fast conditions as they surf towards Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The South Atlantic crossing is considered one of the most challenging legs of the race, with big swells and trade winds that can push the boats to speeds exceeding 20 knots as they ride down massive waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Capetonians will have the chance to meet the fleet and race crew on 11 and 12 November at the V&amp;A Waterfront, where the boats will be docked for several days before continuing their round-the-world journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/novanews.co.za\/tygerburger\/cape-town-skipper-becomes-first-south-african-to-win-world-yacht-race-20231115\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>READ MORE:<\/strong> Cape Town skipper becomes first South African to win World Yacht Race<\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-about-the-clipper-race\"><strong>About the Clipper Race<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Clipper Race is one of the world&#8217;s toughest endurance challenges, seeing teams of amateur sailors battle extreme conditions while racing more than 40 000 nautical miles around the globe.
