Witness how easily the Cape Horn prototype steered the Alberg 30 Jean-du-Sud through the Roaring Forties and around Cape Horn.

Ask for the (recently remastered) 100 min. film With Jean-du-Sud Around the world, a multiple award winning film Yves Gélinas shot to share his experience with fellow sailors.

He could not have accomplished this single-handed circumnavigation through a route once considered impossible for a small yacht (and he could not have made a work of art of its narration) without a totally dependable self-steering system. This film will give you a good idea of what life can be like on a little boat, sailing alone through the Southern Ocean and also convince you of the excellent performance of the Cape Horn Integrated Self-Steering System.
