Dave and Shelby's Circumnavigation
on
BLUE SPURR
Dave and Shelby are members of the E.O.A.

Clubs, and the
first Honorary Members of
The Nicholson 38 Forum.
Dave, Shelby
and Sarah Milner' 40,000 mile voyage on the sailing yacht 'Blue Spurr', a
38 foot Nicholson.
Their 5 year circumnavigation of the
world from 1984 to 1989, is written here in a shortened version of
some of the adventures that they had. It would need a book to be written to find
out about all the sailing, gales, calms and perfect winds. All the friends they
made and all the characters they bumped into. All the goodbye's and all the
parties when they joined up again in some far flung harbour or
anchorage.
