He was the founder of the cruising rally concept over 15 years ago with the ARC Transatlantic rally, the Transarc and numerous Round the World Rallies in which over 15,000 sailors have participated. Sailing continues to be Jimmy's passion, and in the last 25 years he has sailed more than 200,000 miles on all oceans of the world, including three circumnavigations.
