SEEKING SPONSOR FOR MINI TRANSAT

Richard Hewson is a professional sailor and mariner and is currently campaigning for the 2013 Mini Transat Campaign. The Mini Transat is a gruelling 4000nm race across the Atlantic Ocean starting from Brittany and racing to Guadeloupe via the Canary Islands.

Richard  is guaranteed to be on the start line for the 2013 Mini Transat, and if Richards previous campaigns are anything to go by, he will be giving 100% with the aim of winning the race against some of the worlds best sailors.

Richards most recent major campaign took him around the world, winning the 2011/12 Clipper Round the World Yacht Race. Richard has an excellent racing history, including seven Sydney to Hobart Yacht Races, the Fastnet Race, and fantastic results in both inshore and offshore racing. His life revolves around the ocean and this epic race is just another life long ambition that he will ultimately succeed.
