'Working my butt off' on my boat and one thing done, the other comes up. It's a well known factor. But I'm not complaining, happy to be able to do what is needed. And there are nice surprices as well. Hidden away I found a ship's log made by Thomas Walker in Birmingham. As a 'newby' I first red about this instrument in the book 'Zeilend rond de wereld' (Sailing around the world) from the first Dutchman who did this with a pleasureyacht after Sir Francis Chichester. It's Bertus "Papa" Zijdenbos from Vlaardingen, Holland. It took him three years from July 1966 to July 1999 to complete his voyage.
