SAVE OUR SEAS - Ocean Racing
SOS Ocean Racing is out to make people aware that plastic bags are killing our marine creatures and are an environmental hazard.
To do this, in 2010 we will embark on a major campaign involving the Brisbane to Gladstone Yacht Race starting on Good Friday and followed closely by the big event, an attempt at the world record for solo, non stop, unassisted circumnavigation of Australia. The plan is to break 50 days.
Our official website is now complete. Visit www.sosoceanracing.com
"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you did not do than by the things you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - MARK TWAIN
