I don't recall just now, but how old was Sir Francis Chichester when
he circled the world in Gypsy Moth?

--Alan Gomes

I think he was 65 and suffering from cancer and chronic injuries...

Then there was Dr David Lewis, who sailed to the Antarctica in his late 50's
(solo, of course) and continued sailing mostly solo until his death a few
years ago at the age of 83.
