Interview with Barry 'the old sea dog' He's about to finish his circumnavigation!

When we arrived in Horta a few weeks ago we were met at the dock by our friend Barry 'the old sea dog'. This was a surprise because although we knew he was a bit behind with his videos (he's in South Africa in his current videos) but we didn't know quite how far! So we managed to overlap for a few days with Barry in Horta and had a lovely time hanging out with him, mainly in the pub! Peters sports bar is one of the most famous sailing bars in the world so it seemed appropriate. Obviously with such a monumental milestone just around the corner we sat down for an interview with him to discuss the 9 years he's been circumnavigating the world and filming his exploits. As this video goes out (Weds 9th Aug) Barry is 900nm from Plymouth where he will make landfall back in the UK. Barry will try to give updates on his social media as he gets close, but dealing with all that at sea while you're sailing single handed is not the easiest thing so we will try to keep everyone informed on our facebook as well. At the moment Barry thinks it will be around the 20th August, so if you're in the area we know Barry will really appreciate anyone who turns out.... especially if they buy him a beer!
