Then tody whilst enroute to the north and the fleet we had Doing Time pop on AIS it was agreed that we would make one attempt to get her under a tow and try to salvage something for the guys. After a plan so cunning you could skin fox with it was formed the operation was undertaken with a superb result we have the boat back and will tow to the nearest port.

 

Have to say as a sea farer the last 2 days have seen mixed emotions for me the demands on seamanship, the witnessing of 2 guys who have worked for 2 years to forfill a dream have it taken away from them, the leaving of a boat to the mercy of the ocean and then today the joy of getting the boat back and hopfully seeing safley back on the ocean forfilling someone elses dream.

 

 

So thats it from Desi.
