Why do I offer up this website to you?
well firstly, if you haven't come across this website - you will love it. Gavin keeps a fantastic blog about all things old and nautical, a mine of maritime information.

Secondly, here is a great report about Will Stirling and his voyage from Start Point to Jersey across the channel in a 14' dinghy. Yes you read right....14'; 39.5 hrs at sea - distance of 90 nm. Read and marvel at their adventure.
