Life of the Onboard Reporter

Liz Shaw O’Toole meets Volvo Ocean Race OBR (on board reporter, MAPFRE) Jen Edney who brings the sport to life and into our front rooms, but what is it really like for them?

Jen is one of the most renowned water adventure photographers in the business, and regularly appears in international publications like National Geographic magazine, which recently named her as one of ‘Nine Female Photographers Who Push The Limits’. Despite coming from the landlocked US state of Nebraska, Jen has clocked up over 50,000 offshore miles in preparation for the ultimate sailing media job.
