It was a pleasure to read about GM4 being afloat again. I live in New Zealand, but I'll hope to be in Sydney when GM4 calls in. Did you know Francis Chichester's birthday was 17th September? My wife and I had a champagne breakfast to celebrate. We set a place for Francis, poured him a glass of champers and toasted his birthday. We even had a signed copy of Along the Clipper Way opened to reinforce the occasion. You know, we really felt his "presence" during the breakfast. We held the breakfast on my 1960 classic timber yacht, Manutara. To see more of the boat visit www.sailauckland.co.nz. Looking forward to Sydney. How do I get an invite to see the boat up close and personal?
Regards to all
Ray.
