Skipper, Golden Globe Race 2022, a 30,000 mile non-stop solo circumnavigation
The Golden Globe Race is a challenge like no other. Competitors taking part will find themselves alone for close to 300 days at sea, with no outside assistance. They’ll race through some of the world’s most hostile environments with the same technology as the skippers taking part in the inaugural 1968 edition of the race. In fact, more people have climbed to the summit of Mount Everest than have completed a circumnavigation of the globe under sail.
