Justin Chisholm's guest is fellow-Brit Sam Holliday - co-founder of the Race Around: a single and double-handed multi-stage around the world race in Class 40 yachts, scheduled to take place in 2023.
Sam is no stranger to the professional yacht racing scene having been involved in Vendee Globe campaigns for British skippers Mike Golding and Mirranda Merron, as well as helping to run successful Class 40 events like The Atlantic Cup and The Pineapple Cup. Although the Race Around start isn’t until 2023, interest from potential competitors is strong – and, as Sam explains in the interview, he and his small but growing team are working flat out to get everything in place.
