The Governors Cup 2010

St Helena stands like a rocky sentinel in the Atlantic Ocean mid way between South America and Africa. She is often referred to as one of the most remote islands in the world, with the only way to get there being by boat or birth.
Every two years the St Helena Yacht Club in Jamestown and the False Bay Yacht Club in Simonstown South Africa, put together the international yacht race The Governors Cup. Since 1998, both racers and cruisers have taken on the 3000 km course across the 5000m deep Atlantic Ocean in a bid to lift the coveted crystal trophy.

The 2010 edition of the race sees two time victor Billy Leisegang return after a one race sabbatical in an attempt to lift the trophy for an unprecedented third time. With 50% of the original winning crew still on board and new team members from St Helena and Cape Town, Team 'Our Dianne' will be going all out 24 hours a day in their attempt to reclaim the magnificent Governors Cup.
