In July 2011 I left Southampton on the Gold Coast Australia entry in the 11-12 Clipper Round the World Yacht Race (a 40,000 n/mile race around the globe). I made it to Rio then on to Cape Town across the Southern Ocean to WA, but a shoulder injury forced me out of the race. Challenging, tiring, frightening and rewarding - this blog has allowed me to share the journey. Humorous, determined, mad and adventurous – just some of the words to describe my crewmates. What an adventure!

Team Gold Coast Australia
It's full steam ahead with my preparations for the Clipper 11-12 Race. I've been named on the Gold Coast Australia team and the team site is now up and running. It has all sorts of interesting info about our team - about the skipper Richard Hewson (from Tasmania) and the crew taking part (average age, nationalities, what legs they're doing). Plus you’ll be able to follow our progress on the site when Clipper 11-12 starts in just 26 days!
