Dee Caffari Biography

Dee Caffari has circumnavigated the globe six times. She is the first woman to have sailed single-handed and non-stop around the world in both directions and the only woman to have sailed non-stop around the world a total of three times.

In 2006 Dee became the first woman to sail solo, non-stop, around the world against the prevailing winds and currents and was awarded an MBE in recognition of her achievement.

At the start of 2023, Dee joined The Famous Project. The team have set their sights on the Jules Verne Trophy and, if successful, will secure the first world record for the fastest circumnavigation of the planet with an all-female crew. As one of the toughest ocean challenges in the world, they will pit themselves against both the clock and the elements in their attempt to win one of the most prestigious sporting trophies.

Outside of sailing, Dee continues to showcase her talents as a host, presenter and as an International motivational speaker. Dee also spends time supporting her chosen charities and is Chair of the World Sailing Trust, a global charity that promotes the health of oceans and supports sailing in all its forms.
