The London On-Water boat show opened this morning in St Katherine’s marina located right by the iconic Tower Bridge.
Cornell Sailing have a small stand displaying my latest books 200,000 miles: A Life of Adventure, and Cornells’ Ocean Atlas.
Two of Cornell Sailing most successful world events have started from this very venue, the Hong Kong Challenge round the world race in 1996 and the Millennium Odyssey round the world rally in 1998.
To that should be added the fact that my own voyage to the Northwest passage in 2014 started from this very spot and was completed also in this spot in September 2015.
