One of our NSSC Sailability members, Jazz Turner, featured on BBC South East Today evening news on leaving Brighton Marina at the start of her epic Project FEAR ("face everything and rise") journey. She is attempting to become the first female wheelchair user to complete a solo, non-stop, unassisted circumnavigation of the UK and Ireland. Jazz is raising money for the Newhaven and Seaford Sailing Club (NSSC) Sailability fund. Her fundraising page can be accessed at the following link. *Fundraising page:* https://www.gofundme.com/f/project-fear *Journey tracker:* https://projectfear.uk/Expedition-Log/Tracking Aired on BBC South East Today evening news on 02/06/2025. #newhavenandseafordsailingclub #sailability
The weather is beautiful in the Med. And sometimes the Tramontana wind makes itself heard and the wind picks up from the Northwest . At one moment, we saw it brought dark clouds over the eastern Pyrenean mountain range towards the sea and over the harbor. We had the boat open, so quickly closed the hatchers, but had no time to install the canvas to protect the rear deck from the rain. So in this movie you see this fierce hailstorm came over us in the harbor, leaving big hailstones on the deck. That was a first for us! The sound was so loud. And just as quickly as it came, in 1 hour the air cleared and the sun reappeared. It’s a well known phenomena in this part of Mediterranean, called the Golfe du Lion.
