I don't know if anyone has heard of this organization, but it is worth a search.

It's a group formed in the Netherlands by a Neuropsych. He got some backing from Biogen and bought a 67 foot sailboat. His dream, which has strted is to circumnavigate the earth on the boat manned mostly by folks with MS. He's got 4 regular folks on board as well.
If anyone has dreams to sail, send an application. There are many legs, short and long available.
I am fortunate enough to have had some experience in my past, so I will hopefully be joining the group in Polynesia and staying with them through the Indian Ocean, touching base in the Maldives, Madagascar, and winding up in South Africa.
I can't believe I get to do this, I can hardly sleep..I already have a leather bound journal to bring with.

Please visit Oceans of Hope..
