I didn’t know about that little plan. Very interesting. Indeed, I think you sum it up with the word ‘brave’. I don’t think I’m anywhere near brave enough to put myself on that boat, but what I lack in bravery, I make up for in stupidity. I would love to endure 50 days of suffering, if I had the chance, but I just could afford to take the time off. I have to finish building Vreli, and I’m not yet in a position to afford time off money making work.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention though. I’ll try and do my bit to promote them. Heck, that is some feat they are planning!

Nathan,

I have been a great fan of your onkudu blog since the beginning of your adventure around the UK.

I have also been following http://www.bountyboat.blogspot.com/.

This is a blog of some brave folks who are planning to retrace captain bligh’s of the Bounty epic journey in an open boat after he was thrown of his own ship by the mutiny.

Mike Pelham was due to go, but can’t make the trip now due to health reasons and the team is now looking for crew. I thought I mention it to you in case it might be something you would be interested in doing.

Just a thought.

Keep up the great blog and the adventure.

Ron
