As a result of this voyage I was made a Knight Commander in the Order of Isabel theCatholic by the Spanish Government. In l964 and again in l964 I was the organizer and captain of twovoyages in authentic l0th century Viking ships: the first sailing between Yugoslavia and Tunisia (where wewere shipwrecked) and the second between Ireland and Gibraltar."
