After months of preparation and years of planning we check in with Andy Lamont a few days before he leaves the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia for his non-stop westward bound sailing solo circumnavigation and world record attempt in his S&S 34 yacht 'Impulse'. We find out what's gone to plan, what's changed, his set backs, his final departure plans and Andy's final thoughts before leaving for the biggest sailing adventure of his life. Andy: "May the wind always be at your back, may the sun shine warm upon your face and rains fall soft upon your sails. And until we all meet you again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand." From all of your friends at the Southport Yacht Club. Visit Ocean Sailing Podcast for offshore sailing opportunities and podcast extras and follow us on Facebook.
