Portrait :

Ocean Racer
At 31, Ian has extensive ocean racing experience, including one non stop trip around the world. He has clocked up over 70,000 sailing miles, of which 18,000 have been solo. He has twice competed in the Mini Transat - once in a self built Owen Clarke Design. This experience will stand him in good stead to tame his new Class 40 racing yacht Bolands Mill.
