Respect for @MarcusRashford and his campaign to #ENDCHILDFOODPOVERTY
I would like to add that to break the cycle, we need to address food education.
Meals can be both easy, healthy, and affordable.

Good luck to all my friends in the @rshyr. Missing not being with you this year but wishing you the best of winds. #RolexSydneyHobart

Out of the Strait of Messina. Looks very light ahead so maybe we can compress with the lead pack #RolexMiddleSeaRace #BeAMaverick

Enroute to #KielerWoche. It's been many years, wonder what's changed since '03.

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

Forecast verified on the medal race day of @TrofeoSofia. Nice to be forecasting and on the water again. #SofiaIBEROSTAR

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

Not the outcome we could have anticipated but crew welfare has to come first. Incident well handled by @YachtMaverick. #rorcrc600

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

#rorcrc600 start today on @YachtMaverick. Forecast remains light, hot, and downwind, slightly improved this morning. Be back by Friday. https://t.co/ehkJ8llPKv

[Maverick @YachtMaverick]

Race start for the @RORCRacing @Caribbean600 this morning, stay tuned for all the action from out on the start line! #beamaverick #rorcrc600

It's a RECORD!! The entry limit (340 boats) for the 2017 Rolex Fastnet Race was reached at 12:04:24.563, a time of 4 minutes 24 seconds!

While it didn't go as planned, grateful to be involved in this great race and sailing with a terrific group of people #RSHYR #PRIMITIVECOOL

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

Another boxing day eve has passed. Only one more sleep until the big day! #RSHYR #PRIMITIVECOOL

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

Ready to cross the pond in a few hours in the #rorcrtr with @YachtMaverick. Weather puzzle has improved slightly bit still challenging.

Arrived in Palermo after an easy passage from St. Tropez ahead of the @PalerMontecarlo race in a few days time with @YachtMaverick.

Saddened to hear of the loss of Canadian solo sailor Derek Hatfield, who directly impacted my direction as a sailor. https://t.co/yPi8aYak8T

[Broad Reach Foundation for Youth Leaders @sailbroadreach]

The eminent Canadian sailor and an Honourary Director of our Board Derek Hatfield has crossed the bar. Much too... https://t.co/ywwTIkrfzp

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

In recognition of the victory by the @LMAX team and skipper Oliver in the @ClipperRace, I've finally changed my profile picture. Well Done!

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

First time left unsupervised with @YachtMaverick. Truly there was a sweaty itchy day of grinding carbon before this.

[Eric Holden @ericsholden]

Great time first ever sail on a Salcombe yawl. Thanks @SalcombeYClub for running the race and David for trust in me.
