It will be the same journey, by way of Cape Horn, that Sir Francis Chichester completed last year. Photo shows father and son's last moments together on board the Lively Lady before Alec Rose went through the Heads to begin his return lone voyage back to Portsmouth today. His son Michael, who lives in Australia, left the Lively Lady at Queenscliff, just inside the Heads
