about life on board
Uniquely Singapore!
 
 
     
   
Skipper Mark Preedy is an avid drummer and a chilli and curry-lover.
   
Uniquely Singapore will be home to crew from at least some 12 different nationalities from race start to finish. Apart from Singaporeans, the international crew hails from Britain, Brunei, Germany, Indonesia, Italy, Laos, Malaysia, Mauritius, Philippines, Thailand and the United States of America.
   
Sambal manis (sweet chilli) is a hot favourite on Uniquely Singapore – it could likely be the only boat on the Race with a constant supply of it!
   
Uniquely Singapore’s boat song is One Vision by
Queen. How apt for an internationally diverse crew
unified by the single goal of making Uniquely Singapore a lean, mean racing machine, with lyrics like "One flesh, one bone, one true religion; one race, one hope, one real decision"!
   
As water is a precious resource, showers and hand-washes are not often taken. Wet-wipes and alcohol-based hand sanitisers are in used in replacement.
