Hatfield "was an inspiration to follow one's dreams and not be deterred despite what seemed insurmountable challenges." He achieved what many sailors only dream of, in a world that many Canadians are unaware even exists. Piloting the "Spirit of Canada," a 12-metre sailboat he built with friends and family, Hatfield sailed 28,700 nautical miles in nine months to achieve his goal of circumnavigating the globe. Hatfield completed the around-the-world solo race again a second time in 2011. -- next part ___ This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
