DSM Dyneema competition sails on
11/02/2011
DSM Dyneema is offering to rig performance cruiser boats for free for all the skippers selected to take part in the competition.
“We are going to select an elite team of 40 skippers from all the registered entrants to join the 2011 Dyneema Experience Team, and together with our partners we will re-rig their boats for free with ropes made with Dyneema,” said Marcel Alberts, the company’s global marketing manager for fibre solutions. “It’s about getting people who really love sailing involved in a fun competition and really put the rigging made with Dyneema to the test on the open seas.”
There is still time for sailing enthusiasts to register before the closing date of March 4. Full details about the competition can be found at www.dyneemaexperience.com.
Erik Solberg, a Norwegian sailor who has already registered to take part in the competition, has commented: “This campaign is like a successful sailing race: well prepared crew, the right gear, full speed over the line, the best strategic decisions, deadly tactical knock-outs, neat mark-roundings, right mix of sail combinations, great sportsmanship, hilarious surfs, smiling, but hard-fighting participants and happy winners collecting great prizes.”
