Who Will Be Next to Join the 2011/12 Clipper Around the World Race

The Edinburgh Inspiring Capital is the latest addition to The Clipper Around the World Race 11/12. The Edinburgh Inspiring Capital will return for the challenge as it makes a second appearance in the clipper Race after debuting during clipper 09-10 Race. Gordon Reid will take to the helm as Skipper of the Edinburgh Ispiring Capital.
The Clipper will join a truly international challenge with the following entries in the race so far: the De Lage Landen, Singapore, Visit Finland, Qingdao and Derry-Londonderry. This just leaves 4 more clippers to be announced in the coming days. I will be updating you on future entries as soon as they become available.
The fleet will travel to 14 ports on six continents during their year long voyage. The journey will begin in Southampton and take the teams to Madeira, Rio de Janeiro, Cape Town, to both the west and east coasts of Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Qingdao, California, New York, Nova Scotia, Derry-Londonderry and the Netherlands before returning to the south coast of England on the final leg on July 22, 2012.
