We have only waved across Bradwell but I want to hear the full story when you get back. I may even buy the beer!

Wishing you fair winds & good visibility!

Why do I kid myself and think I want to sell the boat?

Alan,

All the very best to you - you're going to have a great experience, and raise money for a worthwhile cause. What could be better?

Remember, we'll all be behind you - about 3500 miles behind, in fact.....

cheers

John

Some might regard sailing with me to Ostend as the greater challenge. Where do people sign up to sponsor you for that?

Click HERE and I'll have you in stitches.

Upholstery and other boaty sewing stuff too.

If only I could find a way of getting this thread of Centaurpipedream's back up to near the top of the forum.....

There is no dedicated site for tracking this. Alan's position and distance to finish will be posted here. This depends on Alan ringing his brother with his lat and long. Given the cost of sat phone calls and Alan's desire to escape from the world as we know it, this may not be very often

He will have set sail today (in no wind to speak of).
