Robin K-J and mizzen sails

[AOWYN]

Did anybody else notice the strange piece supposedly by Robin K-J in the Telegraph this weeked? It refers to him being hit in the face by a seabird while standing by the "mizzen sail".

I haved met Robin a few times and he is a great chap whom I really admire, and I suspect he would agree with me that there does not appear to be a mizzen on SAGA Insurance.

Does this mean that the Telegraph have a sub-editor with a penchant for nautical terms re-writing Robin's pieces, or perhaps there is another explanation?

Didn't see the Torygraph piece but I heard the story from RKJ ages ago, and it happened on Suhaili

That event happened on Suhaili - RKJ was reminiscing about it in a news report. So misreporting, or misunderstanding by the Telegraph?

I, too, read it in the papaer - but he made it clear that it was on Suhaili !

Ah, the perils of reading the paer too late at night.

Aplogies to the Telegraph and thanks for correction.
