I disagree, unless I have misunderstood what you have said!! I think Nathan would be the first to say what a lot of support (in terms of practical help rather than cash) he did have from others as he was passing by. I lent him a towed log when he was having instrument problems and he will be returing it to me in Plymouth at the Jester Azores 2012 start line.
