Gipsy Moth IV is just a few days away from sailing home to Plymouth, where she is due to arrive on Bank Holiday Monday 28 May, 40 years to the day after Sir Francis Chichester returned from his record-breaking solo, one-stop round the world voyage. A huge welcome to celebrate the restored ketch's second circumnavigation is being planned by Plymouth City Council.
The project is now just £50,000 short of its £1 million fund-raising target, which is being used towards covering the selection, training, feeding and transportation of young people on each of the legs of the voyage.
