Ho Jo.
This is Tony Bullimore on board Daedalus competing in the Oryx Quest 2005 non stop round the world yacht race.
All is well on board. As you know, we recently went round Cape Horn, sailed down the South American coast to Uruguay, round the race mark at Lobos Island and are now around 1000 miles into the South Atlantic, on our way to the most southern tip of Africa, to round the Cape of Good Hope and sail on in to the Indian Ocean. We have around 8,000 miles to go to cross the finishing line in Doha, the capital of the Gulf State of Qatar. All the crew are working hard, a tremendous team, and are totally focused on being the first boat to cross the finishing line.
I must say that your Drinkmaster products have been a real treat to everybody on board, whether we are having tea, coffee or chocolate drinks or one of the many soups from your splendid range.
Thanks for your support.
Best regards,
Tony Bullimore
