Jim Schofield is busy working away in the garage beside his house in Blessington, Co. Wicklow at present. He hopes that he will complete it before the summer and his plan is to race it across the Atlantic later this year.
Jim took time out to talk to Ger Sweeney about the project. Hear the interview below and keep up to date with his plan and eventual journey by googling “liffeysailor” to find him on Youtube, Tick Tock and other social media platforms.
