Earthwatch Ambassador Brian Thompson finishes the Vendée Globe round the world yacht race becoming the 7th british sailor ever to do so.
On 16 February 2009, Brian crossed the finish line in fifth place at 9.31am local time off the west coast of France, having sailed 28,699.8 nautical miles and spent 98 days, 20 hours, 29 minutes and 55 seconds at sea.
Known as the Everest of the Seas', the 2008/09 race has lived up to its reputation as one of the world's toughest sporting challenges. Since the start of the race on November 9, just 11 of the original 30 boats look set to complete the race.
