\u201cSince returning from racing round the world in the Clipper 2011-12 Race, I have worked for pretty much every part of the company which has given me unique insight into its operations,\u201d he said. \u201cMy passion is sailing and racing so being a key member of one of the most unique yacht races on the planet is a great honour and another challenge I\u2019m eager to take on.\u201d<\/p>\n
As deputy race director, Mr Way will assist race director Mark Light with the extensive operations and logistics of running one of the world\u2019s longest ocean races.<\/p>\n
