[Public-List] Alberg 30 circumnavigators list

[Glenn Brooks]

I was just reading the a30 page on the bluewater.org web site and saw someone post a message regarding a fourth Alberg 30 circumnavigation.  Apparently Terrell Atkinson circumnavigated in 1971-75 aboard Altair, hull 581.  Terrell's home port was Port Arthur, Texas.  

Anyone know the details of Terrill's voyage, or where Altair is currently berthed?

BTW, also read that Paul Vibert has completed his solo circumnavigation aboard Rough Bounds hull no. 25, and has returned to his home port of miscue island New Brunswick on or around June 23, 2013. Like Yves, Paul was rolled and dismantled in the southern Ocean, although south of Cape Town rather than enroute to Cape Horn, and after jury  rigging a mast to return back to the Cape for a new mast did  an incredible 5000 mi nonstop direct route  to the Caribbean, thence returning in one more shot to Canada. Congratulations Paul!

We now have four circumnavigations in the A30 community!
