Mike Golding OBE (Part 1) - 'I didn't tell him I was a fireman who'd never been in the Southern Ocean'

Mike Golding OBE (Part 1) - 'I didn't tell him I was a fireman who'd never been in the Southern Ocean'

Mike Golding OBE is, quite simply, a sailing legend. He has sailed through the Southern Ocean 9 times in both directions, and raced across the Atlantic 13 times.

He has survived burning buildings and dismastings. He even came third in the Vendée Globe despite finishing the race with no keel.


And after all that, he still goes sailing for pleasure, completing a half-circumnavigation from NZ to France on a family cruise aboard his own catamaran. Now he supports sailors from the grassroots to the top of the sport and is a passionate advocate for the marine environment.


He has been awarded an OBE for his services to sailing. Yachting Monthly's Theo Stocker and Yachting World's Helen Fretter sat down with Mike over coffee at his home to hear his story.
