“GOLD COAST AUSTRALIA” WINS YACHT RACE

After almost a year at sea, clocking up more than 60-thousand kilometres, the team from Gold Coast Australia has sealed victory in the Clipper Round the World Yacht race.

The Gold Coast vessel pulled into Southampton in first place yesterday, capping off a remarkable 51 week journey during which the locally-sponsored yacht claimed a podium finish in all 15 races.

After starting in the UK last August the amateur team led for most of the race around the globe with Visit Finland coming in second.
