What We Are Doing
Well here we are, planning a trip around the UK coast, we leave on the 12th of June for the 2 and a half month trip, in a boat about the length of a modern estate car. Crazy? Foolhardy?
Well we like to think so.
The aim of this sponsored sail is to raise money for the Fellowship Afloat's bursary fund, which provides oppurtunities for people to enjoy outdoor activities who might otherwise not be able to afford it.
One of Fellowship Afloat's big goals is to allow as many people as possible the oppurtunity to enjoy the activities that the centre provides. Over the years this has meant subsidising the costs for many individuals and groups.
The fund setup to provide for these groups and individuals has been supported over the years by generous legacy's and donations, but this has over the last three years been depleted as Fellowship Afloat has sought to offer itself to more.
We plan with this trip to replenish the bursary fund, our goal £10,000 is the amount that Fellowhsip Afloat spent last year from this fund, and if we can raise it will guarantee another years worth of support.
Please keep checking this page as we update it with our location and the tales of our travels around the UK. If you would like to donate money to the bursary fund Click on the link at the top of the page.

It's good to hear from you. Praying for a full recovery for Jellyfish and you both. Love mum and dad xx
So glad to hear you're safe - been thinking of you in these gales. Sounds like the boat is behaving reliably in challenging conditions. We continue to pray... John & Sue K
It seems you are getting the same weather as we have here on the Thames wet and windy, the inshore forcast is for it to drop from a F7 to a F 4/5 hope you get the same. Nicky
Hi, saw you towed in by Port Erin Lifeboat this morning. Hoping it was a technical problem & that you're both OK. http://twitpic.com/262did http://twitpic.com/262dpv
I am sure my colleagues in the Lifeboat looked after you ok, and you can carry on when all is sorted. Nicky
Thanks for all your concerns! It was a minor engine problem, but all is sorted now!
