THE BIG ONE

Happy Girl

Wow what an amazing thing to have done sailing across the Atlantic! I am going to let Nigel & Louise tell the story - just a few thoughts from me:-

The boat was fantastic - all that preparation paid off and we had very few problems except for the pump on the freezer which failed and started dribbling sea water into the bilges but we had a spare so it was quickly sorted.

Food becomes very important but gave us much to think about each day.

There is nothing out there except for flying fish.

There is nothing to worry about as there is nothing you can do about anything outside of your little bubble so total peace of mind - bliss.

On the other hand you are aware that anything could have happened and you would't have a clue - weird.

We loved spending so much time with Nigel and Louise who were a joy to have onboard - lots of giggles and no stress - and HUGE respect for Louise for stepping so far out of her comfort zone!!

The only things I missed were a full nights sleep and a steady work surface in the galley, otherwise I  loved the whole experience!
