Jamie Young: "I have owned Killary Flyer for over 20 of her 40 odd years and have full confidence in her to keep us both safe and do well in a RTW. She was built in UK by a company called ‘Joyce Marine’ of Lymington – disappeared – of alloy to a Frers design as a 2 ton IOR class boat. Being alloy – which was a conscious choice – I regard her as nearly 100% recyclable, as long as she keeps floating! – and that will be part of my campaign message. Renew – reuse – repair instead of constant use of the planets diminishing resources. She will be a handful at times but I plan to improve systems and make her easier to sail for a pensioner on the principle of ‘Any fool can be uncomfortable’. Are there other boats I would like – maybe – but it is not really a critical factor."
