Dustin Reynolds has become the first double amputee to sail solo
around the world via the Panama Canal. Thom D´Arcy meets this
skipper.

Surely if anyone has the right to call themselves the
Single-Handed-Sailor, then it is Dustin Reynolds, writes Thom D´Arcy.

When the 43-year-old American arrived back in Hawaii on 4 December
2021 he achieved the remarkable feat of becoming the first double
amputee to sail alone around the world.

Until 18 October 2008, Dustin had led a pretty comfortable western
lifestyle in Hawaii.

He had a nice house, a business, drove a Mercedes and owned a fishing
boat.
