THE competition in a global yacht race is hotting up, with a vessel crewed by a woman from Ashton Keynes losing its second place spot.
Georgina Walker, pictured, 38, from Ashton Keynes is one of 17 crew members on Samsung that was overtaken yesterday by a yacht called the Barclays Adventurer.
She is taking part in the Global Challenge, which sees 12 identical racing yachts circumnavigate the globe against prevailing currents and winds.
