For any readers not acquainted with us personally, the purpose of this
journey was to return the boat to her base in Spain, following Andy's entry
into the OSTAR from Plymouth UK to Newport RI. The boat herself is a 1983
built GRP sloop, cutter rigged and heavy displacement. She is a centre
cockpit Intrepid 40, built near Newport for her original owner Alan Wynne
Thomas.
