It has been a pleasure during my voyage to have spent time with my daughter, Clare, earlier on and over the last weekend with my son, Mark. Having time to spend with them in their busy lives was very special. Above all they are competent sailors, who made life easy for me. I must also mention my wife, Sue, who joined me in Padstow, the Isle of Man, Lowestoft, Shotley and now Bembridge, where David and Karen Lintin are hosting her and me for a couple of days before David completes the final leg to Wareham with me.
