Well, if I can't go sailing then I'll happily go striding out onshore instead. #C2C #postponedadventure #oceanracing

How life has dramatically changed in 12 months! This was mine and my husband's highlight of 2019. So much anticipation and excitement.

[Clipper Round the World Yacht Race @ClipperRace]

One of the most highly anticipated events in the Clipper Race calendar is Crew Allocation. The event reveals which team the 700 Race Crew will be joining and crew meet each other for the very first time, forming friendships that last a lifetime. https://t.co/Rtlz5iXaF1

@SarahOuten You are such an inspiration and Melanie's cameo made me smile. Thank youfor sharing your experiences and wisdom.

The museum of #knots and #sailors #ropework is calling me! I am prioritising a visit to this fascinating place once travel resumes out of lockdown.

Who knew knots, knotting and plaits were so fascinating? Loved this podcast.
