Story

Following the passing of my wonderful wife Val, my brother William and I are aiming to raise funds for Farleigh Hospice, who cared and tended for her in her final days and hours.

Our plan is to sail the Atlantic islands and God willing cross the Atlantic Ocean and back in 2024/2025.

We have named our journey 'Spirit of Valsa voyage'

As 'salty old dogs' with thousands of ocean miles under our keels we are aware this is not a 'ground breaking' sailing adventure, but as two sailors in their late 70's, trust me it will be a challenge!
