In this video conversation, filmed underway aboard Silent 62 “100%”, Captain Boomies connects with Steve Bell and the crew as they begin their solar-electric Atlantic crossing.

Steve shares how the team prepared for the voyage, the route from Gibraltar to Antigua, and what life on board looks like during the first days at sea. He also explains how they plan to maximize efficiency on the crossing, reduce generator use, and rely on solar power and weather planning throughout the passage.

In the interview, Steve also explains that one of the goals of this crossing is to collect real data and openly share it with the public.

Everything from daily position updates and performance numbers to videos and Q&A is available on silentatlantic.com, where anyone can follow the passage in real time.
