These are the stories that you think are the biggest stories of the year, the ones that make the biggest splash. But what actually ARE the biggest stories?

Sailjuice.com's Andy Rice joined up with someone who knows better than most, Mark Jardine, the publisher of Sail-World.com and YachtsandYachting.com. Mark looked up what were the most read stories across his websites and there are a few obvious ones, but some really not very obvious-at-all stories that have crept into the top 10.

Here's Part 1, the countdown from 10 to 6...

The Top 5 will appear in the next podcast coming soon...
