The RAYC committee are delighted to announce that Sir Robin Knox-Johnston will be the guest of honour and speaker at our Fitting-Out Dinner on the 25th Mar 22 at the Packway Mess Larkhill. All RAYC members are invited to attend.
Sir Robin was the first person to sail single handed and non-stop around the world between 14 June 1968 and 22 April 1969. One of nine sailors to compete in the Times Golden Globe Race, Sir Robin set off from Falmouth, with no sponsorship, on 14 June 1968. With his yacht Suhaili packed to the gunwales with supplies he set off on a voyage that was to last just over ten months. He arrived back in Falmouth after 312 days at sea, on 22 April 1969, securing his place in the history books.
If you haven't already read the story of his circumnavigation, 2 books are thoroughly recommend (he may even sign your copies). They are:
A World of My Own: The First Ever Non-Stop Solo Round the World Voyage A World of My Own
or
A Voyage For Madmen: Nine men set out to race each other around the world. Only one made it back A Voyage for Madmen
