Sailors on course for ocean prize
 


http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/devon/7386531.stm

Some of the best sailors in the world are gathering in Plymouth for the
Artemis Transat race, a single-handed sprint to Boston, USA.

Among the fleet is the 12m (40ft) yacht Fujifilm, sailed and built by
Devon sailor Alex Bennett.

Bennett, 32, is arguably Britain's brightest hope in ocean racing.

And he is aiming to be the winner or at least on the podium after the
finish, about 21 days after the boats leave Plymouth on 11 May.
