Round Britain between meetings, by Anne and Gen Zekin

Anne and Gen won a special award in the CA log competition this year for their account of their trip around Britain. They left Burnham-on-Crouch on Easter Sunday in Amanapuri their Jeanneau 42 foot Sun Oddessey, heading up the East Coast to take the anticlockwise route. On the way they enjoyed fabulous scenery and wildlife and all the pleasures and frustrations of the British weather. As well as distances, tides and harbours, their planning had to take account of timetables for planes, trains, buses and ferries, because what is special about their experience is that they fitted their sailing in stages around work commitments – hopefully an inspiration to those who can’t take an extended sabbatical and are not yet approaching retirement either.
