16 years ago, Garry started his sailing career when he took part in his first race along the French Rivera coast – the Voila de St Tropez. Since then, he has gone on to win many of the world’s biggest inshore and offshore races with his teams, including the Rolex Sydney Hobart Yacht Race, which is often described as ‘the world’s toughest offshore racing challenge’. 

When back at home, Garry runs his own business from the Port of Grimsby and is preparing for the launch of his brand new venture with a friend and business partner. ishfish.uk enables people to buy fresh Grimsby fish online, to be shipped to their door anywhere in the UK.
