  • The @vendeeglobe2020 started yesterday! . Good luck to the 33 sailors setting off alone around the world on their trusty (demanding ) IMOCA 60s, especially @alex_thomson_racing and his amazing machine #hugoboss ⬆️ . You’re all nuts and I can’t wait to join you, keep keeping the dream alive . If you know how addictive following this race is, you know what to do. If you don’t, you better go find out... .

  • RACE DAY!! Today Ian and I start the @normandy_channel_race on @virginmedia business and we can’t wait to be battling it out with the 26 other class 40s on this mad 1000 mile race course! It feels very different to when I’ve competed before as we’ve had to stay away from the race village due to COVID quarantine rules in France, instead sailing across the channel the night before to meet the fleet just before the start. A massive thanks to the whole Normandy Channel Race team for making such an effort to allow us to compete at this strange time.
