World Record Solo Circumnavigation

On 8 October this year I l set sail from the Gold Coast In QLD Australia in an attempt to set the World Record for a Westbound, singlehanded, non-stop and unassisted around the world voyage in the 40 foot class.
I have done and paid for nearly all the work needed to make my boat ready for the journey but there are still a few things I need to do before I leave 

Along the way I will be raising money for the Fred Hollows foundation. Fred Hollows was a great Australian and your donation will help keep alive his dream of restoeing sight to underprivikliged people alll over the world.
