Winning the Class 40 Transat CIC, Ambrogio Beccaria, said that it was an incredibly close race, with lots of twists and turns.
It was not often you win two Transatlantic races in six months, and this is the first solo race that I have won on the boat, that is very, very important to me. And this is one of the best races I have ever done. A lot of the time it is about pain and suffering, this time I was very, very aware all the time of what I was doing, and everything worked very, very well.
