Young Zac has blown his chance to sail alone around the world. This from his

"The shipping out there was so heavy - there was a constant stream of ships
coming in and out and 60 standing off the entrance. So I tacked out to about
two miles from the harbor and went hove-to. The guys from the yacht club
were having trouble finding me in the maze of lights so I turned on my
strobe. When they found me they threw me a line and a cold Coke and towed me
in. Now I was so tired coming in that I was falling asleep with the wind in
my face. I finally got docked about 4:30 in the morning and went over to
Phil's boat for a very light dinner.

No honor! Even Donald Crowhurst is probably spinning in his grave.

and the most demanding trip you have made is ?????
what do you expect of the guy die trying to get into port.
Zac is having a go at something many of us wish we could do, a short tow
into port is irrelavent, its like saying you cant pass someone your
lines at the dock
Get a life.
