We both skydived for fifteen years and were members of the British skydiving team over a period of five years, competing in world championships at various exotic locations. We gave up skydiving in 1990 to spend more time together as a family and, in 1992, with very little sailing experience, we took our children on a four year adventure sailing across the Atlantic Ocean. We returned back to the UK in 1996 and have not sailed since. We now live in the West Midlands, which is about as far from the sea as you can get. We took up mountaineering and have climbed peaks in the Alps, Canada and Kyrgyzstan. Glenys and Neville are planning to retire back on to a yacht very soon.
