"The St. Croix sailor left Frederiksted harbor on February 26 1986 and returned on June 19 1987, becoming the first African-American man to solo circumnavigate the globe. Now, on the 25th anniversary of his feat, Seymour says it wasn’t an accomplishment he purposely set out to achieve." Thank you Mr. Seymour for all of your contributions and inspiration!

“I felt a bit of a letdown when it was over, but after sailing around the world, Frederikstead is still one of my favorite places,” says Seymour, who received the prestigious Golden Circle Award by the Joshua Slocum Society. “The trip proved to be an incredible and invaluable experience.”
