Mick Moran recounts his experiences on legs 4 & 5

Hello JAMAICA Clipper crew and followers.

Its Mick Moran here.

I have just returned home to Dublin after spending the last 5 months on JAMAICA Clipper sailing from Fremantle - Singapore - Qingdao - Hawaii and Santa Cruz, and what a great experience I had. It was absolutly amazing and definitely one of the best things I have ever done. I had a great time, saw some amazing things, did some amazing things and met loads of really amazing people.

I am really missing them all terribly, its really hard to ajust to life on land when I am so used to living on a 68 foot boat with 15 people packed around me at all times. I had such a great time and I would just like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to all the crew who I sailed with on JAMAICA Clipper.

The characters I met made the adventure such an enjoyable experience and made the boat a great environment to be in, even when the conditions onboard were a bit of a nightmare at times, the people on board always made it a lot easier to survive, so thank you to you all, especially Simon the skipper and my watch leaders Johnny B, Maloney and Harry (Julian) who were a huge help. So keep up the good work guys and I hope to see you get on the podium in Jamaica and of course in Cork too.

One Love

Mick
