The Accidental Circumnavigation of Sark

15/4/2015

I read with some alarm about the BA plane bound for Dusseldorf that ended up in Edinburgh by mistake. 

But - I have a confession. I made a similar mistake once myself one Easter!  We were trying to sail from Jersey to Guernsey. A short while into the trip, it seemed that the boat’s compass was pointing in the wrong direction. As time went by, the error increased…

Those that know the waters will understand the very real risks involved, particularly given the icy water in the English Channel at Easter time. In retrospect, however, it for some good life and business lessons!
