My story

We all lead active lives and in the event of someone i know having an accident or myself, its reassuring to know that these guys at BASICS Hampshire, who are voluntary Doctors have the equipment that can save a life. Its about being equipped for the worst. My hat goes off to these doctors who give their time, so we can all help by donating to BASICS Hampshire.

I shall be setting off from Hill Head Sailing Club singlehanded in a Laser1 at around 3 am Saturday June 9th 2012 it will be a challenge to keep in sync with the tides and i am hoping that it will take around 9 -10 hours. This is of course wind, wave and visibility dependent.

 

If you would like to cheer me on at 3am at the slip Hill Head Sailing Club you will be most welcome
