| Any tips welcome! I intend to sail my HR Monsun -31' around Britain and Ireland next summer. May-Aug. I sailed the same boat from Sweden to Brighton, over 2 years ago. I plan to visit approx. 50 Lifeboat stations in support of the RNLI, as well as creating awareness for 'organ donation and transplantation'. My transplant is 20years old, so it' will be a big thank you trip that without my transplant I wouldn't be able to make. Want to cruise in company, or crew ? Sponsorship? | |
