Story

I sailed from the Philippines to Seattle in the US for CALM in the 'Clipper Race of Your Life' .  It was my biggest ever challenge and covered over 7,500nm in both hot and freezing conditions. More people have climbed Everest than sailed this part of the ocean.  It was a great race and the bonus is our boat won! Thanks to everyone who contributed. You can contact CALM at #TaskMeAnything for CALM! £8 allows CALM to answer 1 potentially life-saving call to the helpline and webchat. Open 5pm - midnight everyday 0800 58 58 58.
