Please can someone give me a clue for the answer to question 83? I have two names of the boat that seem to fit the bill. [Boat which set off on a successful bid to sail non-stop around the world in 1968] Thank you in advance.

I am happy to help with other questions.

Sorry, Mad Dog - I could have told you Suhaili when I first posted, but your post asked for a clue, not the answer. Knox-Johnston built her himself in India and sailed her c12000 miles back to UK before entering the round the world race. The name is Arabic for the SE wind,.
