EXPEDITION LEADER
Antonio de la Rosa
Restless from birth, at the age of 13 he is already a true expert in canoeing, swimming and rugby. At 23, he became Spain Quadathlon Champion; which led him to become, a few years later, a world reference in adventure raids, where he became Captain of the emblematic Red Bull raid team for 8 years, in which he achieved dozens of victories around the world.
We certainly couldn’t have found a leader for this expedition with more experience in this type of activity.
ALMA MATER OF THE PROJECT
Pedro Jimenez
Pedro Jimenez, with more than 240,000 miles sailed,
After working from Sunday to Sunday, from sunrise to sunset for the last 25 years, in 2019 I began a change of life: the sailboat became my home and my goal was to make trips and crossings sailing the world.
I know the Mediterranean and the Caribbean well, I have crossed the Atlantic seven times to discover Brazilian, Argentine and Uruguayan coasts. I have made 3 Antarctic crossings. I made double crossing of the Pacific arriving at the Marquesas and Bora Bora, ending the crossing in Valdivia, Chile. What will be the next destination? Where the wind takes me…
