A SCOT taking part in a gruelling round the world yacht race told how arriving in her home country was “really special”.
Vicki Leslie spoke after boats in the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race arrived in Oban on Friday night – the first time the race has ever come to Scotland.
This year’s contest saw them set off from Portsmouth on September 3, 2023, with this penultimate leg of the challenge seeing them cross the Atlantic, sailing from Washington DC to Oban.Leslie, who is part of the crew on board the Ha Long Viet Nam boat said that coming into Scotland was “really special for me”.The final leg of the race will see the crews sail back to Portsmouth, with Ms Leslie adding: “It doesn’t feel real that it’s almost over – it’s bittersweet.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
