Skippers confirmed for Clipper 2019-20 Race restart in 2022


 Unfortunately, due to other commitments, not all previous Skippers are able to return to the upcoming edition. But we are proud to welcome back Rob Graham on Imagine your Korea, David 'Wavy' Immelman on GoToBermuda, David Hartshorn on Seattle, Jeronimo Santos Gonzalez on Punta del Este, Josh Stickland on Ha Long Bay, Viet Nam, Chris Brooks on Qingdao and Ian Wiggin on Unicef.


For the Skippers not able to return, Seumas Kellock, Guy Waites and Rich Gould, we thank them for their stellar skippership in leading their teams in previous legs of the circumnavigation.


Four new Skippers will be leading teams from February 2022, two of which will be familiar names to Clipper 2019-20 Race Crew. Former AQPs, Dan Jones and Mike Miller will be rejoining the upcoming edition as Skippers. Dan is set to lead WTC Logistics. Mike Miller will be Skipper of Visit Sanya, China.


New to the rescheduled race are Skippers Patrick van der Zijden and Nigel Parry. Former Clipper 2013-14 Race Skipper, Patrick, will be joining Zhuhai as Skipper. And the new Skipper of Dare To Lead will be Nigel Parry, who many of you will know as a Clipper Race Training Skipper.


The Clipper Race is set to announce the lineup of Clipper 2019-20 Race AQPs within the next fortnight.
