a truly remarkable soul whose story has captivated many throughout the years. I recall hearing about her during my travels, when tales of extraordinary individuals would reach my ears. Gather 'round, my friend, as I share with you the tale of "Myrtle Corbin: The Extraordinary Enigma." It was during a visit to a bustling city fair that I first heard whispers of a sideshow performer like no other. Myrtle Corbin, born in 1868, possessed a rare genetic condition known as dipygus, which granted her the extraordinary gift of four legs and two reproductive systems. People marveled at her unique form, and her performances drew crowds from far and wide. Myrtle, with her infectious smile and indomitable spirit, defied societal expectations and embraced her differences. She saw her condition not as a burden, but as a source of strength and resilience. With grace and elegance, she danced and performed, captivating audiences with her awe-inspiring abilities. #ExtraordinaryJourney#EmbracingUniqueness#shorts
A rogue wave from a different direction to the general wave train hits my boat while hove to (not sailing) in a storm, 100 miles off the Australian coast on passage from New Caledonia to Brisbane in November 2017. This was during my single-handed sailing circumnavigation in Fathom, my Vancouver 28. The tiller is not lashed completely to leeward as I was experimenting in keeping some way on. Conditions improved enough after 3 days that I was able to start sailing again and safely make landfall. If I had tried to close on the coast in these conditions it could have been a disaster in the shallow water and even bigger breaking waves found in the South Australian Current (another solo sailor was rescued at the time).
