Mission Performance
Greg Miller skippers Mission Performance, the boat Pete Stirling skippered to 64th overall, 13th in Division 1 and seventh in the Clipper Division as Jamaica Get All Right in the 2013 Rolex Sydney Hobart. Joining Miller for the race this year is Gavin Reid, who has been deaf since birth and wears hearing aids in both ears. His team wears glow in the dark lip salve which helps him lip read and follow signs at night. Reid said he wants to experience an exhilarating and demanding year-long challenge whilst travelling the world. London tour guide Brian Harlock is also aboard, deciding a sight-seeing tour would enhance his job.
