The remarkable international offshore roll-call of success for the Volvo 70 Tschuss 2, co-skippered by Ireland's Johnny Mordaunt, has moved up another step with overall victory in February's RORC Caribbean 600. But as Skipper Mordaunt is already our "Sailor of the Month" for January as a result of Tschuss's RORC Transatlantic Race victory, we take heed of his post-race comments in Antigua about how much success in the multi-islands-roundings of the Caribbean 600 relies on top class team work. Thus the "Sailors of the Month (Offshore)" awards for February go to Cian Guilfoyle of Dun Laoghaire, and Simon Johnson of Wicklow, key members of the Tschuss Team.
