| NEW: Read here the
original diary of one of the 3 passengers on board the Uiver during the
London Melbourne Race.
This is the only published history by one of the people who was actually on board the Uiver during this ledgendary race, other than the book "in drie dagen naar Australie" ("In three days to Australia") by Koene Dirk Parmentier, the Captain of the Uiver. I'm gratefull to Johan Domenie, Mr. Domenie's son, who made me aware of the diary, and gave permission to publish it here on this site. All text on this link is copyright of Roelof Jan Domenie (adventurer, passenger onboard the Uiver, and author of the diary), and may not be publised in any other way, without permission from Johan Domenie. |
