2,000 miles now covered, 1 day to go
A Plan for a Plan
Anchored off Holy Island

At last I can now leave Scrabster
Cripes, its cold...
Decisions, decisions ...
Energy consumption, stage 1
Every cloud has a silver lining
Final stage 5 summary
First 2 passages of stage 5 in the bag
High drama, everything that can go wrong will go wrong
How do I plan my passages?
How much is this malarky costing me?
How the weather can block my progress
I am NOT in control
I do hope patience is a virtue
It's been 6 weeks ...
Making myself known to raise money for Honeypot
Me, the coast guard and the RNLI
Messing around in the Solent
My career as a shepherd
Nearing the finish line
Nudging into northern territories
On my lonesome ownsome
On my way ...
Onward and upward...
Passage 14 completed prompting a muse on Wind Turbines
Problems, problems ...
Rainy, windy Sunday

The best decision I made was to ...
The fateful story of my oars
The great escape
The gripometer
The Sketch
The South Coast, what a doddle
The wonders of night sailing
Um, 1 day to go? Better get cracking
Unexpected stresses and pressures...
Venture complete, wrap up
Weather bound in the Orkneys
Web site scare
Website coming along nicely
What am I doing during all those lonely hours at sea?
Whatever happened to Morris?
Why am I motoring if I say I’m sailing round Britain?
Why sail around Britain now?
