Sailor Peter Lawless Takes On Solo Around The World Challenge

Peter Lawless joined Bobby this morning on Down To Business to chat through his attempt to become the first Irish person to sail around the world non-stop and unassisted. An Irish sailor's bid to sail around the world solo, non-stop and unassisted is set to get underway next week. 52-year-old Peter Lawless has been spending recent months preparing for the ambitious undertaking. If successful, he'll become the first Irish person to sail around the world non-stop and unassisted (meaning no outside help). He's hoping the entire trip will take him via the world's Great Capes and back to Ireland in around 8-10 months.
