Congratulations MB & Havefun!!
I have been reading your trials & tribulations as you tried to make & prepare for this voyage over the last year or so (its also on my bucket list, at some stage in my life), I bet you are very pleased with yourself MB & you should be.
"A passage well made", by the sound of it, well done.
cheers

Congratulations on a great trip MB. Some lucky bugger is going to get a great boat soon.

Now Don McIntyre is doing one ... a 2018 Golden Globe Race which is a sort of re-enactment of the famous one in the '60's that Robin Knox-Johnston won.

Entry limited to 20 boats, leaving from England in 2018, no electronics at all (including no GPS so get out that sextant, only film cameras allowed, and he owns the intellectual property of anything filmed!), boats only of approved designs (32-36ft full length keels, with rudders attached to trailing edge), and a fairly hefty entry fee that is refunded if you make it back in the approved time, and a prize for the winner.
