Well after my dismasting I have spent the last 2 days motoring North towards Cape Town trying to collect myself andto intercept Hong Kong container ship M/V Far Eastern Mercury .....

I was laying there half asleep when I heard an almighty bang...  I bolted out of bed and looked out my dome.........

I decided to sail a little closer even though the conditions were deteriorating rapidly. I would never know if I would get this opportunity again...........

Well, just out of nowhere, the tears just started pouring down my face. I could not believe it.......
