Very well done - I am looking forward to reading your book - you really have done something that not many people on this planet could even dream about. Those school days seem a long long time ago...

Just wanted to say very well done on such an amazing effort.
I have just been reading a Stonyhurst Newsletter in which Adrian's trip was detailed. I am so very glad that a freak wave got A back on board when all seemed lost.
Really a inspirational thing to do.
Very best wishes,
Chris Belton (OS 74-79)

Hello, Adrian! I can hardly find words to express how happy my family is that you're finally back home. I'll never forget you and maybe sometimes I will tell my grandchildren with proud about our meeting. Enjoy your family and beautiful summer!

Short and sweet for a change ! ......
I am truly honoured to know you. You have made real your dream something the rest of us merely aspire to and work at. I hope one day the boys will really appreciate the magnitude of your achievement and the dedication and committment shown by both you and Louise . You left a man and returned a hero . How many of us can say that about our fathers ? Congratulations
Wishing you every success and more with your book.
Love you all
Karen

You are a great navigator of the twenty first century! A great man, who has set sailed in the vast oceans alone. Your courage has inspirating us that nothing is impossible in life, as long as we never give up hopes and dreams.

Hi Adrian,
BIG CONGRATULATIONS on completing the voyage - an amazing feat and an inspirational story. I saw you & Louise on Thames Valley Tonight yesterday after you'd arrived home - and am very proud of you completing it.
I haven't been in touch for a long time, but I've not forgotten about your incredible feat - and am proud to have been associated in supporting you all the way!
I know you'll have something up your sleeve again soon - and I'm sure you'll do well again!
All the Best - and to Louise.
Andrew Baker

Hi Adrian, Many congratulations. I heard you speaking at the London boat show and thought then what an inspiration you were to us as potential world cruisers but now we realize that you are an inspiration to the nation. Well done again and we look forward to hearing you speak about your experiences. Marcus

Dear Adrian, I remember you mentioning something of this plan 17 years ago when we met at the European Business School (you and your brother had come to our Panto at the invitation of Rebecca Orde, and I was singing) - congratulations on staying true to your dream and actually doing it! Wishing you a very safe return to dock. Kind regards, Emma

Nice to read that Barrabas is running home at record speed (7 knots average) and the Navy (bless them) visited. You've been part of my life during years. Will miss you and the home front. The welcome in port will be grand. One day we'll meet again, don't know when, don't know where.... Wishing you and the team the very best in future life. Bé.
