These eyes have seen ...

The BT Global Challenge 1996 - '97 The World's Toughest Yacht Race may be over, however the stories are just beginning to be told.

Over the next few weeks the skippers and crews will be telling their stories over this Website for all to read.

How did the skippers fare in the ultimate test ? Did the professionals come through the experience without a scratch or were they as vulnerable as anyone ? What was their story ?

Did the race match up to the expectations of the core crew volunteers who circumnavigated the world ? What were the highs and lows ? How was it for them ? Was it all worth it ?

If you were a crew member on another yacht, what was life like on board a competitor's yacht ? How does your experience compare ?

Have you signed up for Challenge 2000 ?

Read on for the chance to see and experience the World's Toughest Yacht Race through the eyes of those who were there ....
