Transport consultant planner Bob Cocker has just completed the second leg of a global yacht race.

Mr Cocker, of Stratford Street, Oxford, completed the second leg of The Times Clipper 2000 Round The World Race from Havana, Cuba, to Honolulu, Hawaii.

He joined the race on December 1 and the fleet covered a distance of 5,950 miles via the Panama Canal and the Galapagos Islands.

Mr Cocker said: "This really was the most exciting and challenging thing I have ever done, and I will be following the progress of the Leeds Clipper as they continue their journey around the world."
