Yacht Racing
Join Ian Thomson's Yacht Racing adventures as he competes in the world's biggest ocean
races and takes on solo record attempts.
Ian's goal is to become the first Australian to complete the Vendee Globe Ocean Race
in 2012. Melbourne's Nick Moloney has tried and had keel failure off the coast of Rio.
This is the toughest ocean race for solo sailors and will take a lot of preparation and support.
