Raider
Book 7: Aidan Grifford Sailing Adventure Series
Aidan Grifford finally has the opportunity to drive the boat of his dreams. Raider is eighty-eight feet of frighteningly fast, high-tech carbon fibre maxi yacht. It’s the perfect tool to give the top end of IRC racing a shake-up, and at Raider’s helm, Aidan has his eye on one prize: a line honours win in the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race. However, to win the race, he has to finish, and there’s an obstacle in the shape of Raider’s new naming rights sponsor, Ocean Recycling International. The deal is worth millions of dollars, and the collaboration between ORI and a high-profile ocean racing yacht is considered the perfect corporate partnership. Aidan soon becomes suspicious of ORI’s motives for sponsoring Raider . When he discovers ORI is not as “green” as their propaganda suggests, he wants out of the sponsorship deal before his and Raider’s reputations are tarnished. When accidents start to happen, Aidan is dragged into an international recycling scam with life-threatening consequences for him and potentially catastrophic consequences for the oceans he races on. Can he expose an environmental disaster and achieve his dream of winning the Sydney to Hobart?
The Sequel to " Black Diamond "

Love the Sailboat Races
Totally enjoy all the sailing issues and descriptions. As to Aiden’ s sometimes lapse of good sense - a little too much as he ignores life and death situations while focusing on getting to a race.
