About Sofa To Sailboat

During the early summer of 2025, two brave crewmates will undertake an unassisted 4500-mile voyage across the Atlantic Ocean in a 50-year-old tiny 17ft sailing boat to raise money in aid of four charities: Macmillan Cancer Support, Mind, MS-UK, and St Helena Hospice.

The Skipper John-Kenneth D Habbershaw is a Marine Surveyor and Marine Electrician from Essex, he is joined by First Mate, Farris Collins, a former Team GB Gold Commonwealth medal and Bronze medal Powerlifter.
