Re: Sir Ben Ainsley
Well done.
The favourable conditions have helped, but still a fantastic performance. It is reckoned that the boat averaged 20 knots around the island!
That speed is what the cruise ships do when at sea (or a touch faster in fact) so that puts it into perspective.

I think you could place Ben in a bath tub and he would still finish on the podium...well done that man!
