A few youngsters have been setting sailing records lately. First Zac Sunderland - one of “less than a handful of people” to solo circumnavigate the globe. How many people fit in a handful? Whatever it is, add another. Mike Perham just completed his world voyage – now the official youngest. Currently there’s more toddlers gearing up to outdo him, but PyratSail is one-upping them all. Major sponsorship has been secured to support the official PyratSail bid to make our own Rumhead the youngest 41 year old to circumnavigate Boca Ciega Bay alone.

Tampa bay sailing can be challenging, but RumHead is pushing the limits of his endurance, even risking his life, by taking on the most hostile body of water in the area. Dangers include sharks, pirates and a yacht club with full liquor bar middlemost of the bay. “I was unsure at first, but how can you say no to a lifetime supply of anti-diarrheal?” said RumHead when asked why he wanted to go. “Circumnavigating Boca Ciega Bay is a lucrative achievement that has tons of P.R. potential. More people have ventured into Pasco County, than sailed Boca Ciega alone.”
Follow RumHead as his 41st birthday approaches this April. At 4:34 p.m., the exact time of his birth, his epic voyage will begin, etching his name in the record books and Boca Ciega history, forever. In RumHead’s own words, “I just hope I get back before my wife gets home from work, or I’m in deep shit.”
