It took me years to get myself out properly on a voyage. I’d done bits and pieces, crewing for others, but in early 2016, freed of many shackles and believing that when we have lost everything we are capable of doing anything, I signed up for a Day Skipper course.
Six weeks before the course, an opportunity to crew aboard Juggler for two weeks with Tom, Alex and Steve reared its head. And I was away.
The journey would test me, freeze me, free me, terrify me, sicken me and ultimately reward me.
