Pamela Lee and Catherine Hunt Make Sailing History

In a year of bad news and forgettable headlines, this is one of those that needs to be celebrated. On October 13th at 07:45, local time, GMT, two female sailors set out to set the first ever ratified World Speed Sailing Council (WSSC) record circumnavigation of Ireland. Just after 3am local time Saturday October 17th, the duo of Pamela Lee and Catherine Hunt crossed the line and pending ratification from WSSRC are now the first to hold a world record of First All Female Double Handed circumnavigation of Ireland with a provisional time of 3 days, 20 hours 29 mins sailing a total of 761 nautical miles. The record prompted a great response globally in the sailing community, with best wishes being sent in from as far as a field as Australia and America. In this episode of The Sailing Show, Abby spoke to Pam and Cat, talking through the actual challenge itself, what they take away from this event and their plans for the future.
