I am currently sailing across the Atlantic aboard Rumour, a 34ft racing boat - our skipper, Keri Harris, is the race director for the Mini5.80 TransAt race, and we are chasing the Mini5.80 fleet south through coastal Europe, and then west across the pond. We'll catch them in Lagos and set them off, before leapfrogging them and finishing the seven skippers in the sunny climes of Antigua. Watch here for semi-regular updates from Rumour!
