Intro News

The Interview - Neil Hawkesford - The Gleda Project

  • Get a copy of Neil's book A Foolish Voyage here.  It is a fantastic read.  Neil tells the story of sailing the south coast of the UK in an 18 foot sailboat.   You really feel that you are along for the ride.  It will make you want to go back to your early 2o's and go on a big adventure!

 

  • Go to Neil's web site The Gleda Project to see all the details of him building his Wharram 38 catamaran and his current cruising blog.   Neil's catamaran build took eight years. In the interview, Neil speaks about not just building a boat, but building his future lifestyle.
  • For a female perspective on Gleda's adventures, go to his partner Gail's blog Landgirl Afloat.
