Geoff Holt left Plymouth Sunday morning at 1000 hours headed Falmouth. It was a pretty uneventful run although it was 1900 hours by the time he hauled out at Mylor Yacht Haven. Almost all nine hours he sailed under grey skys with drizzle, with only the GPS confirming the route was towards Falmouth. Paralysed from the chest down and confined to a wheelchair, ex-professional yachtsman Geoff will sail over 1,600 miles around Great Britain in an inspirational Challenge that will take in excess of 50 days to complete. Already the holder of many disabled sailing endurance records, the Personal Everest Challenge will be exactly that, Geoff’s own Personal Everest.
