I just can't believe it's been 15 years since we first meet, on the small Island of St Helena.
St Helena lies 1000 miles west of Africa and 1600 miles east of South America, probably not the place to have a little romance, or maybe it is! I was a local teacher in training and Hannah visiting for 8 months through a church organisation.
We again met up in England, the first time as I was passing through after delivering a 12 metre yacht 4000 nautical miles from St Helena to Tortola in the Caribbean which took 31 days non stop and then a 1800 mile delivery from Washington DC down the Chesapeake river to Saint Martins, also in the Caribbean on a 23 metre yacht. I then flew to Europe to met Hannah, but whilst I was transiting to Capetown (South Africa) for a yacht regatta. I then returned to Europe to spend Christmas with Hannah and here I am, 15 years later with three beautiful children and a life style to die for. We've tried the house thing but sailing is far better, for us and the kids!
