What 151 days around the globe by boat taught me: Lt. Cdr. Abhilash Tomy at TEDxGateway 2013
Lt Cdr Abhilash Tomy is the first Indian and the 79th person in the world to perform a successful solo and nonstop circumnavigation of the globe under sail. He embarked on his journey from Mumbai on 01 November 12 and returned after spending 150 days at sea during which time he covered 23000 nautical miles in a sail boat, sailing south of the five great capes of the Southern Hemisphere.
A reconnaissance pilot with the Indian Navy, Lt Cdr Tomy is the most experienced offshore sailor in the country with upwards of 50,000 nautical miles of sailing experience. . He was decorated with the Kirti Chakra, for valour and courageous action away from battle, and the Tenzing Norgay National Adventure Award, both in 2013.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

How did diesel get into your water? That just seems odd someone would build a boat that would let that happen ?
