Tim Griffith on his Sun Odyssey 43DS Tigger is setting off on a planned circumnavigation in April 2020 from his base in Greece.

Tim clearly believes in a challenge as he will also be climbing mountains on route, so not letting his double amputation cramp his style.

Tim's blog page allows you to send emails directly to him. I am sure a bit of morale support from us will not go amiss.

Every year Neilson sailing holidays (Vounaki, Greece) rig up their boats for a special flotilla around the Ionian for people with injuries such as Tim. It always seems very, very popular. I guess anyone wanting more information should get in touch with Neilson direct 0333 014 3351.

Ps. Please don't turn up at Vounaki by boat. They are not licensed to act as a marina and will have to turn you away by law.
