Please everone, give what you can to this very worthwhile cause that is so close to John's heart. What he has undertaken is worthy of a few pounds however you look at it in my book!!
Well done John.

I bet he was in a sleeping bag too. With a tatty dry suit half undone
I'm amazed he made it in the Thundercat, personally I can not see how he will ever cover his costs, but his love of his dad and boats makes it all viable. Still a long way off target. Having overheard conversations, the next journey could be a gooden.
