Imagine for a moment, spending the night on board of a large yacht, being roughly woken in thepitch dark and ordered on deck Every so often you will be totally drenched, very suddenly, in salt water.You will be sharing the same cramped space with 14 other people for a whole year Your stomach, whennot affected by seasickness, will be hit by the competitive tension and nervousness that afflicts allsportspeople You will be obliged to concentrate without cease The slightest loss of focus could costsomeone their life

Paragraph 1:

For the eight crews taking part in the Round-the-world yachting race, this has been daily life sincethey left Britain eleven months ago Now, after racing 50,000 across kilometers of ocean, they are soondue home While most of us have worked, slept, taken a holiday, these crews have sailed and sailed, dayafter day, night after night, in weather conditions that would test any human This is the reality of oceanyacht racing, which bears little resemblance to the popular image of sailing - the quick sprint around alake before returning ashore for a meal and a warm bath

Racing 20-metre yachts around the world is a story of unrelenting hard work, pushing yourself tothe limits of endurance But it is also a story of the vastness and beauty of the sea, of seeing the sun rise

Paragraph 5:

Inevitably, there are tensions The kind of people who choose to take part in races like this tend tomotivated and strong-willed On a trivial level, there are the usual arguments about things like cleaning,tidying, personal hygiene, even the way people snore Row on a boat must be addressed immediately.Left to develop, they get much worse On London Light they have done this by having a meeting whereproblems can be discussed and resolved by majority vote Cooperation is the key, and everyone can havetheir say The London is one of the few boats that has never lost any crew early because of a personalityclash
