About this listen

In this inspiring episode of The Sailing Podcast, join Theo Stocker and Laura Hodgetts aboard Jazz Turner's yacht. Jazz is the first female disabled person to complete a solo, non-stop, unassisted circumnavigation of the UK and Ireland.


Jazz opens up about her extreme 28-day challenge, her life-limiting Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), and the determination that drove her to crawl across barnacle-covered rocks to save her boat just 50 miles from the finish. She details the vital modifications made to her 27ft boat, Fear, and the emotional moment a pod of dolphins appeared in her darkest hour.


Please note: This Podcast was recorded several months ago and we understand Jazz's plans may have changed since then.
