EducationClover was educated at Ryde School with Upper Chine, a co-educational independent school in the seaside town of Ryde, on the Isle of Wight,[5][6] followed by the University of Plymouth (subsequently renamed Plymouth University for marketing purposes), in 2005.[7] The recordFrom 19 December 2002 to 12:50 GMT[8] on 12 January 2003,[1] Seb raced his father across the Atlantic Ocean for {{convert|2700|nmi|km}}[9] between Santa Cruz de Tenerife on the Canary Islands and Nelson's Dockyard on Antigua. Both father and son sailed identical {{convert|32|ft|m}} Contessa 32 yachts. Seb made the crossing in a yacht called Reflection, his father in one called Xixia.[8] The voyage did not pass without problems. Both racers had unnerving close encounters with killer whales and rigging problems meant Seb was unable to catch up with his father. He had to repair a shroud fixture that broke in heavy weather.[10] His priority became to keep the mast standing and finish without pushing the boat too much.[11] Seb eventually lost the race and arrived in Antigua a day behind his father[10][12] when he was 15 years and 362 days old.[1] He lost his title in January 2007, when Michael Perham made the crossing at the age of 14.[13] AwardsIn the aftermath of his achievement, Clover received several awards. He was named Best Prodigy of the Year by the Duchess of York in the second edition of Britain's Brilliant Prodigies Awards.[14] He also received the Young Sportsman Award in the BBC South Sports Awards 2003[15] and the Raymarine Young Sailor of the Year Award 2003 which was announced at the Schroders London Boat Show.[10] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book | title = Guinness Book of World Records 2004 | publisher = Guinness | date = 27 August 2003 | pages = | isbn = 978-1-892051-20-2}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Clover, Sebastian}}2. ^{{cite news | title = Family of Lorna Lambden in 24-hour Isle of Wight walk aim | work = BBC News | pages = | date = 18 June 2011 | url = https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-13809534 | accessdate = 7 June 2013}} 3. ^{{cite news | title = Solo teenager sets Atlantic record | work = BBC News | pages = | date = 12 January 2003 | url = http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/2650617.stm | accessdate = 7 June 2013}} 4. ^{{cite news | title = Boy sails into the record books | work = BBC News | pages = | date = 3 January 2007 | url = http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/beds/bucks/herts/6226775.stm | accessdate = 7 June 2013}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/2678943.stm|title=Atlantic hero back at school|work=BBC News|date=21 January 2003|accessdate=5 November 2016}} 6. ^BBC News at 6 and all ITN news programmes on the first day of Clover's return to school, after his successful single-handed voyage.
