In June 2018 Gregor will be competing in a race that will leave him completely alone for around 9 months at sea as he attempts to sail 30,000 miles around the world non-stop using only 1960's technology.

He's the only Irish entrant in the 2018 Golden Globe Race in which only older boats with limited technology are used.

-No GPS
-No Computers
-No modern materials like carbon fibre
-No Phones, internet, kindles etc

He joined Ian on the show on Monday morning to talk about the major challenge he has ahead. For more information on Gregor and his race visit his Facebook page here and to donate click here.
