British adventurer Paddy Macklin tells the story of his 2009 attempt to circumnavigate the world nonstop and solo in his book Captain Bungle's Odyssey: Singlehanded Round the World.
After sailing into the Southern Ocean in mid-winter with a damaged boat, he had to break his journey in Timaru.
Paddy tells Kim Hill about what he learnt in his seven months alone at sea.
