Mike Atkins – Atlantic Crossing Talk
Ever fancied sailing 3,000 miles across the Atlantic?
Mike Atkins did exactly that – from Lanzarote to Jamaica, 24 days at sea, an average of 5.3 knots, and more than a few “what on earth am I doing here?!” moments.
On Friday 19th September at Weston Bay Yacht Club, Mike will be sharing his incredible adventure – the highs, the lows, the honest laughs, and the pure magic of finally stepping ashore to a warm Jamaican welcome (yes, rum included ).
This isn’t just a sailing tale – it’s about determination, resilience, and the sheer thrill of adventure. Whether you’re a salty sea dog, a casual cruiser, or just someone who loves a good story, this is one not to miss.
So grab a drink, bring your questions, and get ready for an evening of inspiration, laughter, and proper sailing stories you won’t hear anywhere else.
