After
reaching the
scope Sobiesław
Zasada said:
"When
you drive a
car 50 km per
hour there is
no big impression.
Unlike the yacht
that goes with
such a speed
which as an
amazing thing.
Our 17-meter
catamaran was
word for word
slithering on
the water. I
have experienced
many things
in my carrier
but never something
like that. My
first regatta
over Atlantic
was something
really special.
Being a sailor
I have experienced
more than one
storm, but what
I have seen
during the ARC
regatta was
more than I
expected. I
thought that
our 3-year old
catamaran will
fall apart.”
