Its Nottys birthday today!



Notty,the sailor,master cook and navigator on two of my atlantic crossings.

It is indeed my good friends birthday today,26 July 2009,as he was born in 1939 that makes him seventy (70) today! well done pal,may you have many more.

Notty and I stunned( and silenced) the faithfull at the RCYC club bar here in Cape Town,we said we would bring my boat back from Rio de Janerio double handed,they all said it would never work and we would end up not speaking to each other? We silenced that when we arrived as good friends still and even more so when later we did another South Atlantic crossing,this time the other direction and to Salvador,Bahia,Brasil,we also took Nottys daughter,Simone and a mutual friend,John,that was a sailing trip of note,what a success!

Thanks Notty!
