My favourite Oceans of Hope moment – Kaj Bjerre Westphal

OoH Aug 14, 2015, by Kaj Bjerre Westphal in Yacht

On the 11/11-2014 at 11:00 am we came sailing into Manhattan Yacht Club, there were many people who welcomed us, people from magazines, newspapers and television.

It was touching and I must admit that a tear fell from my eyes, the same night we all went out to eat, it was so nice. When I think back on the four weeks of sailing with Oceans of Hope, it has given me so much. To see the entrance to New York and Statue of Liberty I will never forget. I have got to know ten lovely people, who all share the same disease, MS. A great thanks to Eva, Helle, Patty, Joan, Martin, Claus, Cara, Chris, Iben and Christina - we did it! I am bloody proud and it will always stay in my mind.

Also a great thanks to the permanent crew Kristian, Bertram, Jens and Mikkel. You guys are an amazing team: kind, good and always helpful.
