Duracell was built by legendary American sailor, Mike Plant, who beat the American record for solo circumnavigation in the first Vendee Globe in 1989. I am lucky to own this piece of American racing history. *** Become a Patron: https://www.patreon.com/theduracellproject *** For simple, one time donations Venmo: @Matt-Steverson-1 *** Have an idea?
