A British 17-year-old became the youngest person to sail solo around the world when he returned to UK waters today.
Mike Perham crossed the finishing line between Lizard Point and Ushant, France, in the 50ft racing yacht Totallymoney.com at approximately 9.55am, his team said.
He set off last November and has battled with 50ft waves, gale force winds and numerous technical difficulties during the 30,000-mile challenge. More+photos...
