2012 Speed record in the North Atlantic by Giovanni Soldini and Maserati

Racing Yacht Maserati Prepares for Attempt at Cadiz-San Salvador Speed Record: Giovanni Soldini In the North Atlantic

27-Jan-2012 The first ambitious challenge at a speed record in the North Atlantic by Giovanni Soldini and Maserati was announced in Milan on January 26. As from early February Soldini and a crew of seven will be engaged in seeking to become the new record holders between Cadiz (Spain) and San Salvador (Bahamas) on board Maserati, which has been completely overhauled. In addition to skipper Soldini, Maserati will be crewed by 7 capable yachtsmen with a past track record in open ocean-going regattas and in competitions such as the America's Cup. German Boris Herrmann (navigator), American Brad Van Liew (watch leader) and Spaniard David Vera (watch leader) will make up a team completed by four Italians: Gabriele Olivo (trimmer), Guido Broggi (boat captain), Gerardo Siciliano (second bowman), and Corrado Rossignoli (first bowman). The record for Cadiz-San Salvador run, 3884 miles long, is monitored by the World Sailing Speed Record Council, the international body that gives official status to the fastest sailing times along the historical routes once plied by clippers. Available video includes an edited package and still images.
