“I’ve seen enough of the sea to last me for 50 years,” said New Zealand's master mariner and circumnavigator, Dame Naomi James, when she returned to Auckland (below) to a great welcome after her record-breaking solo round-the-world voyage in 1978. But the lure of the sea and yachts has been too great; next Saturday she sets off again, this time with the American-born Laurel Holland, wife of the New Zealand yacht designer, Ron Holland, in the Observer-Europe Transatlantic two-hander race. DUDLEY DOUST, of the London “Sunday Times,” met the New'Zealander during her preparations for the race.
