Dear SILVERRUDDER Friends and Family

 Thanks for another memorable event. We loved having you here and look forward to repeating the success for you again next year. Nothing beats the atmosphere in Svendborg Harbour in the days leading up to the event. It is second to none and we miss you the minute you leave us. Fortunately, most of you have promised us that you will be returning next year.

Thank you all for your kind words of praise. You have no idea what it means to all the volunteers to be rewarded with gratitude and kindness. The strength of the SILVERRUDDER family grows year after year and we appreciate your constructive suggestions for improvement. We promise to work hard and make a new memorable SILVERRUDDER for you in 2024.

 The SILVERRUDDER will never be an easy challenge. It’s only 134 miles, but the miles include variable wind, calm, counter current, darkness and shallow waters… plus extreme fatigue. This is a fierce cocktail for a tired solo sailor.

The psychological effect of being mentally and physically prepared helps fight off the urge to give up when the going gets tough. Having a boat that is ready, tested and tuned in to its skipper is equally important. The season is coming to an end, but now is the time to consider areas for development

 Congratulations for trying to finish, and congratulations for finishing. Many do not succeed in light winds.  

SILVERRUDDER 2024
