Hello
Thank you for all your emails. It was overwhelming to arrive home to so many messages of support. I will get round to answering individual letters, but I am about to go into hospital for some much needed surgery (and a rest...). It will be at least 3 weeks before I am let out again.
I must just thank Matt Debicki, of the Inventure Trust. In a few short weeks he managed to design and construct a system that I could use. Only Matt was able to take old wheelchair parts, yards of elastic and a few blocks (pulleys) and turn them into a state of the art sip/puff system. His role really cannot be understated. Without Matt the boat simply would not have been ready in time. I also need to thank the Inventure Trust for paying him to work solidly on my boat, and for wholeheartedly supporting the project to the cost of at least two charters.
Once again, many thanks,
Hilary Lister
