Solo Around South Georgia - Touch And Go?

Hayley Shepard's attempted solo circumnavigation of South Georgia seems to hang in the balance. Check her blog for the latest.

A serious medical condition of a crew member on board her mandatory 'support' vessel required diversion to the Falkland Islands where a storm swept in.

In Monday's update from Port Stanley, Hayley wrote she hoped to find an additonal crew member to make the crossing to South Georgia.

If that fails, she suggests she might attempt to kayak around the Falkland Islands instead.

You have to feel for her when she writes, "Ahhh, can't express the emotions, thoughts and feelings on inside of me being so close to South Georgia yet so bloody far".
