Jean-du-Sud & the Magick Byrd

An audio book by Yves Gélinas

Presented by Forbes Horton Yachts
Hosted by Lee Cumberland & narrated by Yves Gelinas
Produced & Published by 59 North, Ltd

This is the story of Yves Gélinas’ solo, non-stop circumnavigation via the Great Capes in his beloved Alberg 30. Originally, the hardcover book was only published in French, but it is now available in English. Here it is serialized in audio format through this podcast. Yves himself narrates in his charming and friendly style. Yves is also inventor of the Cape Horn windvane, which 59 North, Ltd’s Andy & Mia used on Arcturus to cross the Atlantic to Sweden.

If you’ve watched Yves’ classic 16mm documentary film, With Jean-du-Sud Around the World, this tale will add to your knowledge and enjoyment of that incredible voyage. If you have not yet screened the film, that treat awaits you. Enjoy…
