Mini-Transat – Portuguese is kicking ass

Let the French do the talk: “C’est le Lobato show”…

The official website say it all...

The portuguese sailor is leading the Mini-Transat: La Charente-Maritime, France -> Bahia, Brazil.

The Pogo 2 Roof/TMN, which I am co-sponsoring, is flying at such a pace  that even the prototypes are behind him (prototype boats are all-carbon and have many innovation elements that make them clearly superior to Series boats).

I’m freaking proud about having my name on that boat and about that guy: the race only started last weekend but unless bad luck strikes Francisco is there for a fight.

I hope they have some time to enjoy the tons of dolphins that love to stop by in that region (West coast of Spain, south of Finistere). I was there about a month ago, in a trip from the UK to Portugal, and those little fellows are just amazing to watch.
