Ian Young, Perth to NW Cape — Mission Update, Day 2 — 8 November 2014

Just spoke with Ian at 10:30am. He’s in Jurien, finishing a coffee.

A bit sore and battered from nearly 9 hours on the water battling some pretty beefy swell of nearly 4m for most of yesterday but, as expected (if you know Ian) he’s as fresh in attitude and motivation as ever and ready to hit the water again. His goal is to reach somewhere around Dongara by evening, but there probably won’t be enough time and wind to reach Geraldton today.

Kites and other equipment, with the exception of a couple of hours unexplained outage on the GPS tracker have been all good.

Ian passes along his thanks to everyone for the support and encouragement. If you haven’t already done so, head over to the “Soldier-On” site and make a donation to help out our Australian veterans!
