Key numbers so far:
Enquiries have come from over 25 different nations
70% of enquirers already have a suitable yacht
Nine sailors have already entered the Global Solo Challenge
Over 30 articles about the event have been published online
Over 35,000 unique visitors to the GSC website
Josh Hall, GSC Event Consultant, who has previously organised two round the world sailing events, is enthused about the reaction to the GSC: For a round the world sailing event to garner this level of entry interest in just two months is astonishing and the level of experience that these enquirers have is exceptional. It proves that there is a large pent-up demand for such an event, which enables sailors to take on this grand adventure with their own yachts and within a sensible budget.
