eather Thomas is the first female British skipper to win a round the world race, and her team aboard , backed by Tracy Edwards MBE, are the first all-female crew to win a global race. What a tremendous inspiration! In winning the Ocean Globe Race, the 27-year-old from Yorkshire has made history. Heather has topped Dame Ellen MacArthur’s second place in the Vendée Globe 2001 and Tracy’s record of second in class in the 1989/90 Whitbread Round the World Race.
