Seb, 15, Youngest To Sail Atlantic Alone

SCHOOLBOY Seb Clover sailed into the record books yesterday - the
youngest person to cross the Atlantic.

Seb, 15, arrived in Antigua in his 32ft yacht Reflection 24 days after setting
out from Tenerife in the Canary Islands.

Among crowds waiting to greet him were mum Dolores - and dad Ian, who
arrived 12 hours earlier in an identical yacht.

Welcomed ashore by Governor General Sir James Carlisle, he celebrated with ice cool
lemonade - his mum said “No” when he asked for a martini.
Seb said: "I am looking forward to a proper bed - one that does not move."

He said there were frightening times but he "still enjoyed every moment". During the
journey he saw whales and dolphins.

"Seeing the whales was the best thing because they came very close and I had one which
I nicknamed Willy the whale. He came up and visited me on his own, about four times in a
row, on consecutive days."

The lowest point: "You can't have three meals a day on a boat - you eat snacks - so when
I ran out of ( me quedé sin) chocolate on Christmas Day I wasn't too pleased.

Sailing instructor dad Ian, 46, of Cowes, Isle of Wight, said: "I cannot tell you how proud I
am of him."

Dolores, who lost weight ( adelgazó) said: "He was a boy when he left but it seems he's
arrived here a man."
