SOUTHAMPTON sailor Ian Walker is targeting more Volvo Ocean Race success tomorrow.
Walker, left, skippered Abu Dhabi to victory in the first leg of the round the world race when his crew arrived at Cape Town last week. The second of the nine legs is due to start next Wednesday, with Abu Dhabi the destination.
Before then, Walker and the other six crews take part in the In-Port race off the South African coast tomorrow.
There are In-Port races at every port the fleet visit during their sailing odyssey which is due to end in Sweden next June.
They are important as they carry points and will be used to determine the overall winner if two or more crews tie for points at the end of the nine legs.
Walker and his crew were second behind Team Alvimedica in the opening In-Port race in Alicante, Spain.
