Many congratulations to all the international Quarterfinalists in this year's competition - Fantastic achievement! I'm not sure I can believe I'm listed with you ... with my story about a 52yr-old American glamorous grandmother who divorces her husband and inherits his old offshore racing powerboat; defying all the odds she tentatively starts to race it - and wins; creates her own raceboat design company and seven years later, she’s the first woman to win the male-dominated World International Class-One Offshore Powerboat Championship, in UK waters off the Isle of Wight.

Good luck to everyone as the selection continues, and thanks to Stage 32 for all the encouragement and support!
