Subject: Richard Nicolson's Expedition

Hi all. Richard is now nearly 2 weeks into his epic world record attempt to sail the North West Passage (the arctic sea above Alaska and Canada). The same yacht made the trip last year, and it will be a world record if it achieves the reverse route within 12 months.

It's a 33ft sailing boat, with a crew of 5 (including one woman), which is also undertaking some important ecological surveys.

Richard is also raising money for the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust.

Please take the time to read more on his web site WWW.RICHARDNICOLSON.COM , where there is a very good blog and details of how you can donate to this very worthy cancer cause.

My own business (Datasharp) is sponsoring the expedition, by providing a Satellite Phone, as well as making a donation.

I hope nobody minds me putting this on here!

Thanks for reading.

Spike
